I haven't but thats because my migraines started when I was 5 so the chances of it being related to my muscular skeletal system are remote. Do you think your migraines are caused by a miss alignment?

hi.

Thank you so much for your reply. A true answer is I’m not sure, I have had migraines since I was a teenager and I’m on the hospital care and have had every treatment under the sun and none of them work or I get intolerable side effects.

What I have found to work best has been medicinal cannabis, but I’ve had to stop taking the vaping part of it because my chest was getting infected and since I had to stop vaping, my headaches and me, Graham have become intolerable again. This deterioration may have also been triggered, by not only by stopping vaping, but having to start another medication for another condition that I had to stop because I thought it was irritating my headaches.

I’m now back to square one. I’m going mad with Pain which I think is a combination of migraines and cerviogenic headache, which is getting worse and worse.

I know I have some facet joint degeneration in my facet joints and I have had and I’m awaiting for more steroid injections in my neck as the pain consultant thinks my migraines are aggravated by what’s going on in my spine … any thoughts welcome!

I’ve never been to one but would like to know if it helps if you try it. My migraines started after an accident when I was 27and I know there are places in my mid back and neck that are causing most of them. I’ve tried regular chiropractor but they weren’t able to fix the problem. One specialized in headaches but I don’t think he was a neuro chiropractor.

Hello! I was having regular acupuncture with my local chiropractor. I did find it helpful but unfortunately having it so regularly became very expensive.

Have you tried it yet?
