Janet has had migraines since childhood. It occurred everyday and her medications were taken on a daily basis. Her sleep was affected and even her work due to the severity of the migraines. She was admitted to the hospital numerous times which also lasted for days on some occasions. When it became unbearable, she would resort to having the pain reliever injected for faster relief. She mentioned the pain to be on a 9/10. It came to a point wherein she was already taking pain relief medication for maintenance (2 in the morning and 1 at night). After learning about N8 Upper Cervical Chiropractic she decided to give it a try. The head is known as one of the most common places where pain is located. Headaches are head pain that can be hard to describe. Some common descriptions are used to describe the pain: • Throbbing • Unrelenting • Intermittent • Squeezing • Constant The location of the pain may be in one part of the face or skull or all over the entire head. The pain may come about spontaneously or be associated with activity or exercise. Headaches also may be chronic in nature and sometimes increase in severity. Nausea and vomiting are often present, particularly with migraines. Upper cervical chiropractors understand the importance of the proper alignment of the top bones of the neck. The C1 (atlas) and C2 (axis) vertebrae were specially designed to act as a protector for the delicate brainstem and spinal cord. Their unique shape makes them a kind of housing for the brainstem, to keep it safe from damage. However, if you have endured a trauma to the head or neck, even if it was many years ago, these bones can put the brainstem under stress and cause it to send improper signals to the brain. Additionally, as we have seen, a misalignment here can act as a kind of blockage to the flow of both cerebrospinal fluid and blood.
