Chiropractic for Migraines in Colorado

We help patients with migraines by providing high-quality upper cervical chiropractic care.

Millions of Americans, many of them right here in Denver, are affected by migraines. They need relief now.

Conventional headache treatments are unreliable because doctors often prescribe one-size-fits-all solutions, such as ibuprofen or antidepressants, which come with a surprising number of side effects.

We identify and treat the individual root cause of your migraines.

Chiropractic treatment can often alleviate the frequency and intensity of migraines by addressing their root causes, such as structural imbalances in the spine, especially in the neck area. 

Misalignments in the upper cervical vertebrae, often resulting from poor posture or neck injuries, can pinch the trigeminal nerve. Because this nerve controls sensation and function in the face and head, compression may lead to migraines. 

Lifestyle factors like an unhealthy diet, dehydration, poor sleep habits, and stress can act as triggers for migraine attacks.

Combining our years of experience in migraine relief with evidence-based chiropractic care, our chiropractic clinic in Denver, Colorado helps headache sufferers escape the endless cycle of migraines.Dr. Carzoli won’t just “crack” your neck — which isn’t the most effective way to perform a chiropractic adjustment, anyway. Instead, he’ll work with you to build an individualized plan for total recovery.

Conventional migraine treatment rarely addresses the root cause.

Conventional doctors treat migraines with dangerous remedies like drugs and Botox. Both are horrible for you; they literally deaden the nerves so you don’t feel the migraine.

This medieval solution is somehow the standard of care. All these drugs and pharmaceuticals have adverse side effects that may damage your overall health and wellness.

These conventional doctors are treating your headache pain symptoms, instead of the root cause.

Dietary supplements are natural ways to improve your health and are free of side effects. But we do not recommend treating migraines with ginger or curcumin or essential oils. You don’t have migraine pain because of a turmeric deficiency.

These all-natural supplements are still treating the symptoms, not the root cause.

These are better than drugs for short-term pain management, but supplements should only hold you over till you can make it to your friendly neighborhood chiropractic center to receive holistic headache relief.

We treat the ROOT CAUSE of migraines.

The root cause of many migraines is a misalignment of your upper cervical spine.

At Denver Upper Cervical Chiropractic, we can help most migraine sufferers without the use of drugs or botox. Pain-free spinal manipulation leads to proper alignment of the spine and improved quality of life.

While it’s important to assess the needs of each individual including with precise X-ray analysis, nearly every patient we adjust for migraines has seen resolution in their head pain.

Chiropractic services can be incredible support for migraine management — not just lower back pain and neck pain like many believe.

Studies show that going to a qualified doctor of chiropractic can reduce the frequency, duration, intensity of migraines — as well as reduce your reliance on medication.

Other causes of migraines include hormonal changes, stress or anxiety, or even poor posture.

What is a migraine?

Migraine headaches affect 25 million Americans every year. Migraines are often considered the worst headache you can get.

Migraine symptoms include:

• Intense throbbing pain
• Stiff neck
• Anxiety
• Light sensitivity
• Noise sensitivity

Some experience an “aura” (a set of visual symptoms) before a migraine attack. Aura symptoms may include:

• Bright spots
• Flashing lights
• Moving lines
• Temporary loss of vision

A migraine is usually on only one side of your head. On the other hand, different types of headaches, such as tension headaches or cluster headaches, radiate on all sides of the head. Migraines can last hours or even days.
