Understanding the condition
Migraines are a complex neurological condition characterised by recurrent, severe headaches often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. While migraines have multiple contributing factors including hormonal, dietary, and environmental triggers, musculoskeletal dysfunction in the cervical spine may contribute to the frequency and severity of migraine episodes in some individuals.
- Severe throbbing or pulsing headache (often one-sided)
- Nausea and vomiting
- Sensitivity to light (photophobia) and sound (phonophobia)
- Visual disturbances (aura) in some cases
- Episodes lasting 4–72 hours
How chiropractic care may help
Chiropractic care does not treat migraines directly, but research suggests that spinal manipulation and cervical care may help reduce headache frequency and intensity in some migraine sufferers. At Vitality Chiropractic, we assess for cervical spine involvement and treat any identified musculoskeletal dysfunction that may be contributing to your headaches. We also work alongside your GP or neurologist where appropriate.
- Cervical spine assessment for contributing dysfunction
- Targeted adjustments to reduce cervicogenic triggers
- Soft tissue therapy and muscle tension relief
- Lifestyle and postural advice to help manage known triggers
- Collaborative care with your GP or specialist where appropriate

Frequently asked questions
Can chiropractic cure migraines?
Chiropractic care does not cure migraines. However, it may help reduce the frequency and severity of migraine episodes in some clients by addressing cervical spine involvement and musculoskeletal triggers. Results vary between individuals.
Should I still see my GP about migraines?
Yes. Migraines are a complex neurological condition and we recommend you continue working with your GP or specialist. Chiropractic care can complement, not replace, your broader migraine management plan.
How is migraine different from a regular headache?
Migraines are typically more severe, longer-lasting, and often accompanied by other symptoms like nausea, light sensitivity, and aura. They have a distinct neurological mechanism compared to tension-type or cervicogenic headaches.
