Migraines and Me
I was eleven when I got my first migraine.
This is my story about migraines and me.
One thing I don’t think I’ve discussed much on this page is
visiting a chiropractor. I try to go on a regular basis as I really
think this helps with aches and pains. You may have seen some weird
videos, or heard some scary experiences, as Chiropractors do like to
crack your bones to relieve tension. Trust me, the treatment is worth
it as afterwards you feel so much more relaxed. I have been for my
migraines several times and I really think it helps to reduce the tension
in my head.
One thing I never considered having
though is acupuncture as I have a
major fear of needles. The Chiropractor
I visit is a qualified acupuncturist.
Several people have advised me to
try this so I thought that if I am lying
face down and I can’t actually see the
needles maybe I can handle it. And I
did handle it! I was so proud of myself
and really pleased to have conquered
my fear of acupuncture needles.
I would advise anyone suffering
with back/neck ache, headaches or
migraines, like myself, to try this. It certainly relieves a huge amount of pain. It could
even lead to you realising the cause of your aches and pains.
I was once told a funny story about someone who had a headache every time after
visiting a relative. It was as if the headache was in her weekly routine. She found out
the headache was caused by a strain on her neck after sitting on a beanbag. Each
time she visited her relative her head didn’t have any support from the beanbag so it
strained her neck. It sounds so simple but since they changed their choice of chair they
no longer had painful headaches.
Let me know your stories, I’d love to hear them!
