Migraines During Pregnancy

Up to 32% of women experience migraine headaches repeatedly throughout their lifetime. However, women may often find that the increased beta-endorphins during pregnancy help with the headache symptoms that they found painful before pregnancy. Taking medications is often not an option expecting mothers want to risk, so what’s the next step? Chiropractic care can be very useful in treating the many aches and pains of pregnancy.

 

A licensed chiropractor can often identify and treat the underlying cause of the migraines, using spinal manipulations and lifestyle suggestions to maximize the treatment of migraines in patients.

 

For more information on migraine treatment contact Health Star Chiropractic. Their licensed chiropractors provide migraine treatment and chiropractic care in Montgomery, Alabama and may be able to help you start leading a life free of painful migraines.
