Tonawanda chiropractic care at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation may reduce headache days each month.

HEADACHES AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Headaches are not uncommon! Many Tonawanda headache sufferers get headache relief with Tonawanda chiropractic care. One in 5 new chiropractic patients come to a chiropractor’s office like Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation with a complaint of headache. Headache patients comprise a significant part of the chiropractic practice, and that’s true for Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation. Chiropractors many times identify and participate in interdisciplinary care of headache patients with other healthcare providers. (1) Spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) for cervicogenic headache is written to be quite helpful. For the most benefit, a new study reported that 18 SMT visits compared with 1, 6, and 12 visits, is most effective, decreasing cervicogenic headache days by 50%. Compared with slight massage, SMT also created 3 more cervicogenic headache-free days a month. (2)

Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation shares a new study that higher Vitamin D levels may reduce migraine headache incidence.

TIP OF THE MONTH: Vitamin D for Reduced Migraines

It has been offered that the inflammation and a diminished 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 said to be therapeutic. (3) A recent study writes that better levels of serum Vitamin D (50 to less than 100 ng/mL) decreases the odds of having a migraine headache by 80% to 83% versus levels below 20 ng/mL. (4) Tonawanda migraine sufferers may try to enhance their Vitamin D status in addition to their Tonawanda chiropractic care plan.
