For many people, headaches and migraines can be confusing and sometimes frightening conditions to deal with. Confusion abounds regarding the possible causes and treatments of such conditions. The vertebral subluxation complex (spinal vertebral misalignment) can have a significant influence on the cause and therefore treatment of headaches and migraines. When certain vertebrae are “out of alignment,” tension is put on the meningees (tissue that covers the brain, spinal cord and nerve roots) resulting in tension/stress on the brain and nervous system. The end result: possible headaches and/or migraines. This meningee stress can even originate at the tailbone!!!
