Migraine Treatment with our St. Paul Chiropractor
Migraines have the power to send you crawling to bed an instant after the pain starts up. Common warning symptoms tend to only give you enough time to find somewhere dark and quiet to ride out the pain. You do not need to suffer endlessly, waiting for the pain to stop, as your Lakeville chiropractors at Lake Marion Chiropractic Center are here to help. With chiropractic care for migraines, you can find relief from your symptoms and even prevent the development of these impromptu attacks of head pain, once and for all.
Migraine Warning Symptoms
Many migraine sufferers experience warning symptoms, or auras, that indicate a migraine is on its way. Common warning symptoms include:
- Vision changes or loss
- Speaking difficulties
- Tingling in arms or legs
- Weakness
- Numbness
- Hearing disturbances
These symptoms may occur for up to one hour before a migraine develops. Once these symptoms start, you can take your migraine medication or attend chiropractic treatment sessions to reduce the severity and duration of the attack.
Migraines and More Than Just Ordinary Headaches
Migraines definitely go far above and beyond the severity of normal headaches. Migraines can keep you from completing your activities of the day by causing blinding pain. The pain can get so bad that it causes you to feel nauseated or even start vomiting. The migraines continue for hours to days after they first start, leaving you struggling to make the most out of each day. On average, migraine headaches will last for up to three days before resolving. After a migraine goes away, you may face another day of feeling postdrome symptoms, including weakness, fatigue, and irritability.
Chiropractic Care for Migraines
Chiropractic care can actually help reduce the severity, duration, and frequency of the migraines you typically experience. The chiropractic adjustments relieve pressure on the bony and soft tissue structures within your body in an effort to mitigate the causes of your migraines. Your chiropractor will assess your migraine patterns and find the best level of treatment for the mitigation or elimination of your symptoms. You may need to complete therapeutic exercises or attend massage therapy sessions to further reduce your migraines.
