Migraine triggers

Migraine headaches can begin at any age and have been attributed to a variety of factors without a definite cause. Genetics and environmental factors are suspected culprits and the list of symptoms varies by patient. Dr. Moe Abtahi, D.C. of the Family Chiropractic and Spinal Health Care Center in Ramsey, N.J. advises his patients from Northern New Jersey and Rockland County, New York to stay onto of their headaches by keeping their bodies in alignment. “By the time a patient comes to me, they have often tried medication, physical therapy, and constantly suffer from tightened back and neck muscles.”

Dr. Abtahi advises keeping a log of when the onset of the symptoms appears. “Factors ranging from weather, food, skipping meals, stress, medications, hormonal changes, and dental issues – the list is tremendous of what contributes to the pain our patients feel.” The Family Chiropractic and Spinal Health Care Center helps patients manage their migraines by providing hands on treatment options and supportive care.
