Man with a headache needs chiropractic care.

How Are Migraines Different?

Most types of headaches cause pain in the head, facial area, or behind the eyes. With migraines, however, there is an excruciating amount of pain usually felt on one side of the head. Some people have so much pain when they get a migraine, they end up in the emergency room. Besides pain, though, they also experience other symptoms including nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and visual disturbances, including a temporary loss of vision.

While cluster headaches and tension headaches can be painful as well, most people do not experience the same symptoms with these types of headaches as they do with migraines.

What Causes Headaches and Migraines?

If you come down with a headache, the cause is usually obvious. Maybe you haven't been getting enough sleep, or you’re under a lot of stress. Some headaches are caused by sinus congestion or not having your usual cup of caffeinated coffee in the morning. For some types of headaches, however, such as cluster headaches, the cause is usually unknown. When it comes to migraines, there are usually certain triggers, such as hormonal changes, skipping meals, and overpowering smells.

What Are Some Effective Treatment Options for Headaches and Migraines?

Many patients have gotten relief from chronic headaches and migraines by getting their spine manually adjusted. Besides adjustments, many chiropractors also offer lifestyle advice and nutritional counseling to help their patients avoid headache triggers.
