Struggling with Headaches or Migraines in Wauwatosa?

Headaches vary in pain; however, they’re a nuisance in every situation. Having migraines or headaches can affect your emotions negatively to the point where you become incapable of doing basic tasks. These problems often seem inescapable; some people use medication for short term relief, but this does not offer a long term solution. Headaches and migraines often originate from structural imbalances, and chiropractic treatment can treat the hindering problem. Solutions and relief at Connect Chiropractic, your chiropractor in Wauwatosa, could be answer you’re looking for.
How do I Get Rid of My Migraines Without Medication?
Before coming to Connect Chiropractic, I had suffered from chronic migraines for years. They got so bad that I would be out of commission for at least a full day (if not three) and have an"aftershock" or headache hangover for multiple days afterward. I had tried going to a neurologist, who prescribed me an "as needed" medication, but that only provided temporary relief. I wanted to find a way to manage my migraines without depending on meds.
Honestly, I was terrified by the idea of a chiropractor before coming here. I thought they were only for old people and people with bad backs, and I genuinely didn't believe it could help my migraines. However, after getting to know Dr. Alex, I decided to give it a try. I will admit that my symptoms did get worse within the first month of care, but I stuck through it and am so happy that I did! I love that it is a med-free way to treat the CAUSE of the problem.
At this point, I have been under care for about a year and have gone down from two migraines a month to less than four all year! I would definitely recommend chiropractic care to anyone -- not just for back pain but for all sorts of medical concerns as well. You might be surprised by how many things chiropractic can help with; I recommend going in for a consultation to learn for yourself! For anyone who is scared by chiropractic and actually wants to be informed about the"why" behind their treatment, Dr. Alex and the staff will help you through every step!
Headaches and Migraines in Wauwatosa
Structural problems are able to cause the simple pain from a morning headache to the unbearing effects of migraines, which include: light and noise intolerance, vomiting, nausea, hallucination, depression, and annoyance. Structural problems arise when the spine’s position is altered thus applying pressure on the nearby nerves. This can occur from development issues, trauma, consistent stress, and various injuries. The compression of nerves are able to send signals to muscles near the head or back that cause them to tighten.
Compression directly relates and is able to cause a slight headache or migraine that over time leads to severe symptoms. The constant pulling of the muscles can even pull bones out of alignment. Experiencing headaches or migraines can actually be a sign that there are problems in the spinal column that need attention. Responding to headaches and migraines is necessary because the spinal column is how the brain communicates with the entire body.
