HEADACHES AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Headaches are not unusual! Many Murfreesboro headache sufferers get headache relief with Murfreesboro chiropractic care. One in 5 new chiropractic patients visit to a chiropractor’s office like Most Chiropractic Clinic with a complaint of headache. Headache patients account for a significant part of the chiropractic practice, and that is true for Most Chiropractic Clinic. Chiropractors often identify and participate in interdisciplinary care of headache patients with other healthcare providers. (1) Spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) for cervicogenic headache is reported to be quite successful. For the most benefit, a new study discovered that 18 SMT visits in contrast to 1, 6, and 12 visits, is most effective, decreasing cervicogenic headache days by half. Compared with slight massage, SMT also brought about three more cervicogenic headache-free days a month. (2)

Most Chiropractic Clinic shares a new paper that higher Vitamin D levels may reduce migraine headache incidence.

TIP OF THE MONTH: Vitamin D for Reduced Migraines

It has been proposed that the inflammation and a reduced immune system may have a role in migraine headache. The role of nutrients – vitamin D, vitamin B12, alpha lipoic acid, CoQ10, magnesium, niacin, riboflavin, and riboflavin - in the supportive care of migraines is reportedly therapeutic. (3) A new study reports that higher levels of serum Vitamin D (50 to less than 100 ng/mL) decreases the odds of suffering a migraine headache by 80% to 83% as opposed to levels below 20 ng/mL. (4) Murfreesboro migraine sufferers may want to consider enhancing their Vitamin D status alongside their Murfreesboro chiropractic care plan.
