HEADACHES AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Headaches are not uncommon! Many
Sandy Springs headache sufferers get headache relief with
Sandy Springs chiropractic care. One out of every 5 new
chiropractic patients come to a chiropractor’s office like
Cross Chiropractic Center with a complaint of headache. Headache
patients comprise a significant part
of the chiropractic practice, and that is true for Cross Chiropractic Center.
Chiropractors many times diagnose and co-manage
headache patients
with other healthcare providers. (1) Spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) for
cervicogenic headache is reported to be quite effective.
For the most benefit, a new study reported that 18 SMT
visits in contrast to 1, 6, and 12 visits, is most
effective, decreasing cervicogenic headache days by half.
Compared with slight massage, SMT also resulted in three more cervicogenic headache-free days a month. (2)

TIP OF THE MONTH: Vitamin D for Reduced Migraines
It has been offered
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 seemingly therapeutic.
(3) A new study reports that better
levels of serum Vitamin D (50 to less than 100 ng/mL) lessens
the odds of suffering a migraine headache by 80% to 83% versus levels below 20 ng/mL. (4) Sandy Springs migraine
sufferers may want to consider improving their
Vitamin D status in addition to their Sandy Springs
chiropractic care plan.
