Queens Chiropractor Treats Headaches and Migraines Naturally, Without Medication


QUEENS, N.Y., Aug. 12, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to chiropractor Dr. James Lee, chiropractic care is an effective treatment for severe migraines and headaches. Dr. Lee says that spinal adjustments help correct underlying mechanical misalignments that may be triggering headache pain. These treatments may reduce or even eliminate the need for pain medication. Dr. Lee recommends that patients suffering from headache or migraine pain schedule a diagnostic visit with their chiropractor to learn more about the benefits of non-invasive pain management.

Dr. James Lee is reaching out to headache and migraine patients. The Queens chiropractor uses non-invasive treatments at his pain management clinic to provide natural headache relief for individuals who suffer from severe migraines.

"When a headache occurs, most people reach for the nearest over-the-counter painkiller," said Dr. Lee. "However, taking medication is not always safe or effective, especially for long-term relief. Chiropractic care is an effective treatment for patients seeking an alternative to medication."

According to Dr. Lee, many individuals blame diet, caffeine intake or stress for their severe migraines and chronic headache pain. In reality, the chiropractor says many patients may be suffering from this pain because of a misalignment in their cervical spine.

"When the cervical spine is misaligned, it may compress the rectus capitis posterior minor (RCPM) muscle," said Dr. Lee. "Pressure on this muscle will cause it to spasm, which triggers a tensions headache. As long as a mechanical misalignment persists in the cervical spine, then patients will continue to struggle with chronic pain."

According to Dr. Lee, medication can only deliver fleeting headache relief because painkillers fail to address the actual cause of headaches and severe migraines.

"The first step towards healing is to correct the underlying problem," said Dr. Lee. "Spinal adjustments are an effective way to restore alignment to the spine. By relieving pressure on the RCMP muscle, we reduce the occurrence for future headaches."

Dr. Lee says that patients have reported significant pain relief following a spinal adjustment. In addition to adjustments, Dr. Lee recommends complementary treatments to enhance overall pain relief. According to him, massage is meant to help release tension trapped in the jaw or other trigger points that can exacerbate headache pain.

Stress, fatigue and poor nutrition are also contributing factors for headache pain, says Dr. Lee. As part of his wellness care program, Dr. Lee provides nutrition counseling to help his patients eliminate factors that may trigger headaches.

"Migraine sufferers choose our center because of our integrated approach to headache relief and commitment to wellness care," said Dr. Lee.
