November 2018 Healthy News: Chiropractic for Headache & Vitamin D for Migraine

Headaches are not unusual! Many Fort Wayne headache sufferers get headache relief with Fort Wayne chiropractic care. One out of every 5 new chiropractic patients visit to a chiropractor’s office like Aaron Chiropractic Clinic with a complaint of headache. Headache patients account for a significant part of the chiropractic practice, and that’s true for Aaron Chiropractic Clinic. Chiropractors often diagnose and co-manage headache patients with other healthcare providers. (1) Spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) for cervicogenic headache is reported to be quite effective. For the most benefit, a new study discovered that 18 SMT visits in contrast to 1, 6, and 12 visits, is most effective, decreasing cervicogenic headache days by half. Compared with slight massage, SMT also produced three more cervicogenic headache-free days a month. (2)

TIP OF THE MONTH: Vitamin D for Reduced Migraines

It has been proposed 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 seemingly therapeutic. (3) A new study reports that better levels of serum Vitamin D (50 to less than 100 ng/mL) decreases the odds of suffering a migraine headache by 80% to 83% versus levels below 20 ng/mL. (4) Fort Wayne migraine sufferers may try to enhance their Vitamin D status alongside their Fort Wayne chiropractic care plan.
