Understanding the Link Between Neck Pain and Migraines

Neck pain and migraines are two debilitating conditions that often go hand in hand. Many people who struggle with chronic migraines are unaware that their neck pain may be a significant contributing factor.

At Advanced Sports and Family Chiropractic & Acupuncture, our team of expert chiropractors and acupuncturists specializes in treating neck pain and migraines. With our holistic approach to medicine, we get to the root causes of pain, providing natural relief without relying on addictive pain medications or invasive procedures.

If you or a loved one are suffering from frequent migraines, daily neck pain, or tension-related pain and discomfort, we are here to reduce your stress, eliminate your neck pain, and break the painful cycle of migraines, improving your quality of life.

How Does Neck Pain Contribute to Migraines?

If you suffer from frequent migraines, you know how debilitating and frustrating the condition can be in your day-to-day life. Identifying or diagnosing the root cause of migraines is challenging due to the many possible triggers and contributing factors. Oftentimes, migraine headaches are brought on by our environment, diet, stress, and especially neck-related injuries.

If you have recently experienced a neck injury, have trauma from a past injury, or have a pre-existing neck condition causing tightness, stiffness, or pain, you may have a misalignment of the spine, specifically in the area where the neck meets the base of the skull.

The neck and head share a system of complex nerve pathways, muscles, and blood vessels that can trigger migraines when irritated or thrown out of alignment. Poor posture, stress, or injuries can shift the vertebrae out of place, increasing the likelihood of migraine headaches. A pinched nerve in the neck can also trigger and contribute to migraine symptoms.

In recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of patients suffering from chronic migraines due to a condition known as Tech Neck. This modern neck condition is caused by extended screen time and improper posture, which puts stress on the spine and leads to migraines.

What Are the Common Symptoms of Neck Pain Related Migraines

Migraines that originate from the neck are known as cervicogenic migraines. These types of migraines often come with the pain that starts in the neck and spreads to one side of the head, reduced mobility or stiffness of the neck, a sensitivity to light and sound, nausea or dizziness, as well as pain that worsens with specific neck movements.
