Thousands of people suffer from migraine headaches each year. Millions of dollars are spent on over the counter medications that only mask the symptoms, if they do anything all. Maximized Living Doctor Matthew Herba was one of these needless sufferers. Now as a chiropractor he intends to spread the word about safe and natural treatments to migraine care.

Most headaches are caused by tension. The muscles in the neck get tight and cause referral pain to the head. Sometimes these headaches are so severe they are called migraines and are accompanied by nausea, vomiting, auras, and light sensitivity.  Whether a person suffers from tension headaches or migraines, some sort of treatment is needed.

Treatments

• Cold Compress – the compress is either put over the eyes or on the forehead
• Over the Counter Medication – OTCs such as ibuprofen (Advil) and acetaminophen (Tylenol) can be taken be every few hours to once a day depending on the type you choose
• Prescription Medication – For frequent or severe migraines physicians will prescribe pain medication to take at the onset of the migraine or as a preventative

Natural Treatments
Nutrition – Many migraines are caused by a food allergy. Determining and eliminating the culprit may be all it takes to rid your fear of frequent migraines.
Chiropractor – Studies have shown that regular chiropractic adjustments reduce the frequency of tension headaches.
Toxins – Sometimes hidden environmental toxins invade our body and cause frequent headaches.
