In some people, migraines can originate from the spine. Misalignment of the vertebrae (bones of spinal column) or subluxation (partial dislocation) irritates the nerves which travel the length of the spine all the way to the brain. These misalignments makes the individual prone to various chemical imbalances in the brain. Chiropractors can realign the vertebrae to relieve the pressure against inflamed nerves and relieve the pain.
As our brains and nervous systems are the single most complex system within our bodies there are many factors contributing to their functions. Misalignments in the spine may not be the lone factor however it is likely that a chiropractic appointment will help with headaches or migraines should you have any.
