“I have suffered from migraine and tension headaches all of my life. I have taken prescription and over the counter drugs and still have them. What type of treatments do you offer?”

Answer:

Terri S. of Fayetteville: “Headaches controlled my life. I couldn’t go anywhere because I was afraid I would get a headache. When I got a headache, I would be sick for three days. I would feel nauseated and would continually vomit for up to five hours at a time.”

Terri suffered with migraine headaches for close to twenty years. Her medical doctor would prescribe one medication after another, from potent pain relievers to anti-depressants and Beta blockers. She finally decided to try a different approach – a natural one. She made an appointment with me and we began a treatment plan that consisted of spinal adjustments, trigger point therapy and acupuncture. The adjustment restores normal motion in your joints, decreases muscle spasms and inflammation. Acupuncture helps your body produce endorphins (natural pain relievers) and balances your energy flow. Trigger point therapy can release muscular tension in your neck. Terri explains, “Before, headaches controlled my life. Now, I have control of my life!” We also use Neurological Stress Reduction Therapy and cold laser therapy for patients who suffer from headaches and migraines.
