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

Millville chiropractic care at Wilson Family Chiropractic may reduce headache days each month. 

 
HEADACHES AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Headaches are not uncommon! Many Millville headache sufferers get headache relief with Millville chiropractic care. One out of every 5 new chiropractic patients visit to a chiropractor’s office like Wilson Family Chiropractic with a complaint of headache. Headache patients comprise a significant portion of the chiropractic practice, and that’s true for Wilson Family Chiropractic. Chiropractors often 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 effective. For the most benefit, a new study discovered that 18 SMT visits compared with 1, 6, and 12 visits, is most effective, reducing cervicogenic headache days by 50%. Compared with slight massage, SMT also created 3 more cervicogenic headache-free days a month. (2)

Wilson Family Chiropractic shares a new study that higher Vitamin D levels may reduce migraine headache incidence. 

TIP OF THE MONTH: Vitamin D for Reduced Migraines

It’s been proposed 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 said to be therapeutic. (3) A new study writes that higher 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) Millville migraine sufferers may try to improve their Vitamin D status in addition to their Millville chiropractic care plan.
