Hello, I'm doctor Sue Yunan, and to day, I want
to talk to you about a topic that affects millions
of people every day, migraines. If you've ever experienced one,
you know it's more than just a headache. Migraines can
be debilitating, often accompanied by nausea, visual disturbances, and sensitivity
to light and sound. As someone deeply passionate about natural
(00:22):
and holistic health care, I want to share how chiropractic
techniques can offer significant relief for those suffering from migraines.
Over the years, I've treated many patients who came into
my clinic as a last resort. They'd tried medications, dietary changes,
and even injections, often with little or temporary relief. What
(00:43):
many of them didn't realize is that the alignment of
the spine and nervous system plays a crucial role in
migraine development and management. The spine house is your central
nervous system, and when vertebrae become misaligned, particularly in the
neck or upper cervical region, it can create pressure and
irritation on the surrounding nerves. This misalignment or subluxation can
(01:06):
disrupt communication between the brain and the body. For migraine sufferers,
that disruption can trigger or worsen the frequency and intensity
of headaches. Through gentle, targeted chiropractic adjustments, we can correct
these misalignments, relieving pressure on the nervous system. Over time,
patients often report fewer migraines, less intense symptoms, and a
(01:29):
reduced reliance on medication. One of the techniques I often
use is called cervical spine manipulation, which focuses on the neck.
It's a safe and non invasive procedure that helps restore
proper movement to the joints and improve nervous system function.
Many patients are amazed that such a simple and precise
adjustment can have such profound effects on their migraines. But
(01:53):
chiropractic care isn't just about adjustments. In my practice, I
take a comprehensive approach to migraine relise. This includes assessing posture,
muscle tension, and even lifestyle habits like sleep, hydration, and stress.
Tension in the upper back, neck, or even jaw can
contribute to migraine onset, so I often incorporate soft tissue therapy,
(02:16):
corrective exercises, and lifestyle coaching is part of the treatment plan.
Another important factor I address is inflammation. Inflammation in the
nervous system or surrounding tissues can act as a major
trigger for migraines. Chiropractic adjustments, along with nutritional support and
supplement recommendations, help lower inflammation naturally. I always encourage my
(02:39):
patients to view their health holistically. Migraines aren't just a
problem in your head. There is a signal from your
body that something's out of balance. Chiropractic care helps restore
that balance without masking the symptoms with medication. If you
or someone you love is suffering from chronic migraines, don't
lose hope. There are actions outside of pharmaceuticals, and chiropractic
(03:03):
care may be the natural solution your body has been
searching for. Let's work together to get to the root
of the issue, because you deserve to live pain free.
