About migraines
Migraines are very painful headaches that usually begin on only one side of the head and may become worse with exposure to light.
Chiropractic, which loosely means to treat by hand, is a type of manipulative therapy that has been practiced in the U.S. for over 100 years. This discipline is based on the premise that function of the joints and muscles of the spine can have a profound effect upon health.
