Migraine Headaches often respond exceptionally well to Chiropractic Care.

Read on to find out more about a simple treatment might help you get your life back.

We treat patients with Migraines and other Headaches, often helping people get better and improving their headaches even if medications aren’t really helping and in people that have suffered for years.

Why don’t more people hear about Chiropractic’s effectiveness with migraines?

It’s hard to say, we’re trying to help more people by letting them know!

Virtually every day in our office we see people that come in as a last resort. 

They’ve been suffering for years, seen so many different specialists, and tried so many medications… none of which helped them to any significant degree.

They make a decision to try another approach, Chiropractic Care.

They get better… they’re shocked to find that something as simple as Chiropractic can take care of their headaches when the drugs, injections, and other types of care did not.

If you suffer from migraines or other headaches, it’s very likely we can help you feel better and often have lasting results.

We believe that if your body is functioning properly, you’re healthy and you don’t have headaches.

It’s up to us to find that dysfunction, the cause of the pain and improve it so that you can get better.

It makes sense to approach headaches this way.

Migraines are a diagnosis of disease.

The diagnosis itself does not identify what caused the health problem.

This is important because getting to the cause can better address the problem.

The challenge is that there are many causes. It varies.

This is why different people with similar headaches respond differently even to the same treatment.

Often people respond really well to medications, unfortunately others don’t and many people want to be able to get rid of their head aches without continuing to take medications.

Getting back to your problem, migraines…

If migraines are a diagnosis, a classification, but this doesn’t necessarily identify the cause of your problem.

The question you may have is why haven’t all the doctors, specialists, tests, and imaging identified this cause?

This is a great question.

The answer is that sometimes these type of chronic problems often require looking at them in a different way and that’s what we do here at Hagebusch Chiropractic.

We take a functional approach to evaluation and look at your entire body to identify the problem area.

We don’t just look at the symptom.

We look into the functional problems that may be the cause of the headaches.

Improving these problems often helps people get better.

As mentioned above, the cause of the migraine can vary quite a bit.

For example, in some people it can be a reaction to a common food in the diet (one dietary cause of migraine is talked about here).

Even the specific food can vary from person to person.

In some people, it’s a structural problem that causes neurological changes resulting in headaches.

Even this common cause can vary from person to person.

In many it has to do with mechanical problems in the neck (often in the upper part of the neck) that causes pain type signals sent to the brain.

These problems aren’t due to a disc or something that can be seen on MRI.

Good chiropractors use various types of specialized exam procedures to identify the problems.

The reason that mechanical problems can cause headaches has to do with the way our nervous system is wired.

The upper part of the neck, the jaw, and the head all send information to essentially the same area in the brain to tell you where the pain is located.

The areas are so close in the brain that sometimes the signals get misinterpreted in the brain.

Identifying these problems and the neurological complications can be difficult. They aren’t causing massive exam findings that are easy to find like might be seen in many stroke cases.

This is why so many people continue experiencing the problems without getting better. They are small changes, functional changes.

This is also why Dr. Hagebusch spent well over 400 hours in post-doctorate education learning functional neurology so that he could better understand and treat problems like migraines.

It makes sense to start with the safest, most conservative care before having to progress into more aggressive treatments. Chiropractic is that treatment.

Unfortunately, this isn’t what happens for most migraine headache sufferers. This leads to so much unnecessary suffering… often for years.

This is why when people come in and get better, they often get upset for not getting in sooner – upset that no one recommended Chiropractic to them.

Upset that they spent years in pain and unable to enjoy their lives, taking so many medications that often caused other problems for them.

Only to get better often within just a month of care.

They’re upset because their doctors didn’t recommend it to them.

It’s understandable.

It’s not really their doctor’s fault, they just didn’t know that another treatment approach would help you.

This is why the FDA recently recommended that MD’s find out more about how Chiropractic can help.

The reality is that all health practitioners and specialists, including chiropractors, think of a problem within their particular way of evaluation and treatment.

Chiropractic does help so many people though and would help many more that are currently not under care.

There are several studies demonstrating Chiropractic’s effectiveness in treating headaches.

Unfortunately, Chiropractic does not have the money that pharmaceutical companies have to constantly put out company funded studies about medications.

This might be why the Chiropractic studies get over-looked. It’s hard to say for sure.

Below is a study that found Chiropractic care was safe and as effective as the common migraine drug, amitriptyline.

Here’s a 2014 migraine headache study found that:

“For the prophylactic treatment of migraine headache, there is evidence that spinal manipulation may be an effective treatment option with a short-term effect similar to that of a commonly used, effective drug (amitriptyline).”

“Based on trial results, these treatments appear to be associated with little risk of serious adverse effects.”
