Manahawkin chiropractic care at Manahawkin Chiropractic Center may reduce headache days each month.

HEADACHES AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Headaches are not uncommon! Many Manahawkin headache sufferers get headache relief with Manahawkin chiropractic care. One in 5 new chiropractic patients come to a chiropractor’s office like Manahawkin Chiropractic Center with a complaint of headache. Headache patients account for a sizeable part of the chiropractic practice, and that’s true for Manahawkin Chiropractic Center. 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 in contrast to 1, 6, and 12 visits, is most effective, reducing cervicogenic headache days by half. Compared with slight massage, SMT also resulted in 3 more cervicogenic headache-free days a month. (2)

Manahawkin Chiropractic Center 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 offered 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 reportedly therapeutic. (3) A recent study writes 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) Manahawkin migraine sufferers may want to consider improving their Vitamin D status alongside their Manahawkin chiropractic care plan.
