HEADACHES AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Headaches are not uncommon! Many Fernandina Beach headache sufferers get headache relief with Fernandina Beach chiropractic care. One in 5 new chiropractic patients come to a chiropractor’s office like Amelia Chiropractic Clinic with a complaint of headache. Headache patients account for a significant part of the chiropractic practice, and that is true for Amelia Chiropractic Clinic. Chiropractors often diagnose and co-manage headache patients with other healthcare providers. (1) Spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) for cervicogenic headache is written to be quite effective. For the most benefit, a new study found 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 three more cervicogenic headache-free days a month. (2)

Amelia Chiropractic Clinic 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 said that the inflammation and a reduced immune system may play 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 seemingly therapeutic. (3) A new study reports that better levels of serum Vitamin D (50 to less than 100 ng/mL) lessens the odds of having a migraine headache by 80% to 83% versus levels below 20 ng/mL. (4) Fernandina Beach migraine sufferers may try to enhance their Vitamin D status in addition to their Fernandina Beach chiropractic care plan.
