It’s becoming more common hearing patients who suffer from migraines coming in that are tired of being prescribed new (and often dangerous) medications and treatments. With stress levels on the rise, it’s no wonder the number of patients suffering from migraine headaches has skyrocketed. As migraine headaches are largely biomechanical in nature, the throbbing pain, vertigo, nausea, vomiting and extreme sensitivity to light and sound can be simply ceased or diminished greatly via receiving cervical adjustments. It’s more and more common to see the loss of cervical (neck) curve corresponding with migraines. How does one lose the natural curvature of the neck one may ask? It’s simple…technology is a huge culprit. The daily use of laptop computers, sitting down at a desk working on the computer and the use of smart phones (texting/social media/surfing the internet) all have in common the action of looking downward constantly which is strengthening the flexor muscles of the neck to look down and weakening/stretching the extensor muscles of the back of the neck. For even more ergonomic advice on how you can arrange your work station to benefit you and your body, set up a complementary consultation.
