Types of Migraines

Why this resource is helpful:

"There are many types of migraines. To get relief from them, many migraine sufferers tend to take pain relieving medications. However, this is only a short-term solution, and it is not good to frequently take pain relievers, as doing this can lead to pill addiction. Chiropractic care offers a natural solution to migraines. At Back & Neck Care Chiropractic in Vancouver, WA, our experts provide safe, effective, and non-invasive methods for holistic healing.

Different Types of Migraines
Migraines are different from headaches, and they are not all the same. In fact, there are several types of migraines. The most common migraines are migraines without an aura, migraines with an aura, and migraine aura without a headache.

The symptoms of migraines without an aura usually include an intense, throbbing headache on one side of the head that can last from four hours to three days. Migraines with an aura usually include the experience of the aura stage before experiencing a headache. The aura consists of a broad range of neurological symptoms that last from five to 60 minutes before a headache occurs. These neurological symptoms could be blind spots, dizziness, slurred speech, or other symptoms. A migraine aura without a headache is the experience of migraines with an aura, but there is no headache.

There are several other types of migraines. They include chronic migraines, retinal or ocular migraines, abdominal migraines, menstrual migraines, migraine with brainstem aura, ophthalmic migraine, and vestibular migraine, or migraine-associated vertigo.

Migraine Treatment
Our chiropractor will determine what type of migraine you are suffering from. This will affect what treatment method we use. We may use spinal alignment to alleviate migraine pain, since back and neck pain can trigger migraines. We also provide deep tissue massages to treat migraines. Our chiropractor might also use nutritional counseling, acupuncture, and more to alleviate and prevent migraines.
