New York City Chiropractic Care to Help Relieve Migraine Pain
Migraine sufferers are not by themselves. Around 15% of US adults get migraine. More often, women more so than men are troubled by migraine. Women are more likely to suffer migraine three times as often as men do. (1) Rosenberg Wellness Center is not alone in the desire to help migraine sufferers get relief. Rosenberg Wellness Center is delighted to contribute to the migraine relief effort with its gentle New York City chiropractic care.
TREATMENTS FOR MIGRAINE: MEDS & CHIROPRACTIC & MORE
What do migraine sufferers do about their migraine? They resort to medications. Meds are first line treatment options while around 50% of migraine sufferers are recently trying complementary and integrative medicine. One set of researchers has organized a research project studying the chiropractic care of migraine as migraine and musculoskeletal tension and pain often occur together. They named their study the “Integrative Migraine Pain Alleviation through Chiropractic Therapy (IMPACT).” (1) Rosenberg Wellness Center looks forward to their findings as they plan to compare multimodal chiropractic care plus usual care and usual care alone for adult women with episodic migraine.
MIGRAINE TREATMENT OUTCOMES
Non-pharmacological interventions for migraine are usual. To determine if an intervention is “clinically meaningful,” researchers seek a 50% reduction in headaches. A panel of researchers who reviewed a large number of published studies proposed that associated symptoms and fear of attacks would also be appropriate outcome measures along with the 50% reduction in migraines. They also said that the level of effectiveness for non-pharmacological interventions – particularly used in addition to medication – should be lower if beneficial. (2) Rosenberg Wellness Center is happy to be a part of our New York City migraine sufferers’ healthcare team for migraine relief. The 50% Rule has governed the outcomes of Cox Technic.
CHIROPRACTIC APPROACH TO MIGRAINE
Chiropractic is known for its approach to musculoskeletal pain and its relief. Since research suggested that musculoskeletal tension may have a role in migraine, chiropractic may have a role in its relief. Researchers gathered details from lots of randomized control trials of spinal manipulation for migraine relief. Treatment with spinal manipulation varied from 2 to 6 months. Preliminarily, spinal manipulation was written to be an effective therapeutic treatment to decrease migraine days and migraine intensity and pain. (3) Rosenberg Wellness Center uses very gentle spinal manipulation from the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to relieve pain and ease any migraine-related musculoskeletal pain issues.
