Can Chiropractic Help With Migraines? Yes, When the Root Cause Is Structural.

Migraines and headaches often come from a misalignment where the skull meets the top of the neck. When that joint shifts off center, it pulls on the muscles and nerves around the base of the skull and can send pain behind one eye, in a band around the head, or to the top of the skull. If that’s what’s driving your migraines, correcting it can bring real, lasting relief, not just symptom management.

Most people we see have spent years managing migraines with medication without anyone ever examining the top of their neck. If that’s never been checked, it’s the piece worth looking at first.


The critical structural issue is found in the relationship between the skull and vertebrae of the upper neck. When upper cervical misalignments form in this region, it causes the head to tilt off center, creating asymmetry in the pull of the muscles and soft tissue of the neck and head. This can send pain to the base of the skull, behind one eye, in a band-like formation around the head, or at the top of the head and can by very debilitating.

Since beginning with Dr. Durand about two months ago, I've not had one migraine and was able to get off my maintenance medication. I'm very grateful for his practice and his receptionist is awesome too!

Dr. Durand has been a game changer for my 9 years old daughter, who suffered from frequent, debilitating headaches for years. His use of body scans to pinpoint exactly what's out of alignment was impressive, utilizing real data to identify and treat the root causes. Since his treatment, her headaches, which used to occur several times a week have completely stopped. We haven't seen one in months.
