TREATMENTS FOR MIGRAINE: MEDS & CHIROPRACTIC & MORE
What do migraine sufferers do about their migraine? They resort to medications. Meds are first line treatment options while around 50% of migraine sufferers are recently trying complementary and integrative medicine. One research team has organized a research project studying the chiropractic care of migraine since migraine and musculoskeletal tension and pain often occur together. They named their study the “Integrative Migraine Pain Alleviation through Chiropractic Therapy (IMPACT).” (1) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. anticipates their outcomes as they plan to compare multimodal chiropractic care along with usual care and usual care but itself for adult women with episodic migraine.
MIGRAINE TREATMENT OUTCOMES
Non-pharmacological interventions for migraine are customary. To determine if an intervention is “clinically meaningful,” researchers seek a 50% reduction in headaches. A group of researchers who reviewed a large number of published studies suggested that associated symptoms and fear of attacks would also be good outcome measures along with the 50% reduction in migraines. They also stated that the level of effectiveness for non-pharmacological interventions – particularly used with medication – should be lower if helpful. (2) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is pleased to be a part of our Auburn migraine sufferers’ healthcare team for migraine relief. The 50% Rule has governed the outcomes of Cox Technic.
CHIROPRACTIC APPROACH TO MIGRAINE
Chiropractic is known for its approach to musculoskeletal pain and its relief. Since research suggested that musculoskeletal tension may have a role in migraine, chiropractic may play a role in its relief. Researchers collected details from several randomized control trials of spinal manipulation for migraine relief. Treatment with spinal manipulation ranged from 2 to 6 months. Preliminarily, spinal manipulation was found to be an effective therapeutic treatment to decrease migraine days and migraine intensity and pain. (3) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. uses extremely gentle spinal manipulation from the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management to reduce pain and alleviate any migraine-related musculoskeletal pain issues.
