Migraine Miracle

At age 4 ( the age I continue to recall this pain) I suffered very severe migrain headaches. I had fallen out of a high chair at age 2 - landing on my head. I recall at 4 and 5 years of age such severe head pain that would be made more extreme even by someones foot steps on the floor. My parent got me to a chrioporactor at 5 years of age and amazing relief was experienced almost imediatly with spinal corrective care to the nerve root areas of my cervical and upper dorsal spine. The life changing experience of those treatment led me to pursue a career in the chiropractic profession. However i often experienced reocurring episodes of migraine attacks which always responded positively to spinal treatment. Over time as a doctor I learned that various triggers which caused certain parts of my body to be upset caused a neurological reaction which again led to a spinal reaction to aggravate the spinal nerves which again set off the migraines. With that personal experience and positive results with my patients I am now able to prevent my migraine return and more importantly now know what I did wrong if a migraine returns. The fear of an aneurism or brain tumor is removed.
