Question: Daughter with Migraines...cause blood vessels in eye to rupture...chiropractor?

Answer:

Dear Concerned Mom,

A chiropractor is unlikely to be able to help your daughter as her trigger is hormonal. We would suggest that you take her to a Migraine specialist with an established track record instead. It may well be that a Migraine specialist can help find a preventive regimen that will reduce the frequency AND impact of her Migraines. At the age of 18, she has many years ahead of her during which she will be living with this disease. Getting established with a Migraine specialist now will give her a head start.

Good luck,
Teri Robert John Claude Krusz
