Notice yourself yawning non stop as your migraine episode begins? Notably, this reaction is not caused by fatigue. Instead, it’s your body desperately battling oxygen deprivation stemming from hidden misalignments in your upper neck (a key problem addressed with Brentwood Chiropractic Care). When your spine isn't working as it should, simple breathing becomes a fight.
That relentless, pulsing headache is a migraine's tell-tale symptom. It pounds away, relentlessly until it forces you to retreat, stealing precious moments from your day.
Suddenly, it's not just your head. Lights sear your eyes, sounds feel like they're shattering your skull, even the slightest scent triggers a wave of nausea. Your senses are in revolt, the world is an assault.

Feeling on edge, impossibly sad, or suddenly gripped by fear? You're not alone. Migraines don't just attack your body – the emotional turmoil can be just as agonizing.
When those terrifying visual disturbances hit – blinding flashes, bizarre patterns, even darkness closing in – the fear becomes unbearable. Is this "just a migraine" or something far worse?
Your nostrils burn, your eyes stream, and you feel like you're fighting a cold that never arrives. That crushing sinus pressure is yet another migraine trick, another layer of misery.
Waves of sickening nausea wash over you, sometimes leading to agonizing vomiting. Your stomach churns, dizziness makes the world spin. Many who experience these two symptoms wonder when their torture will end.
Exhaustion weighs you down, but the pain is relentless. You toss and turn, longing for sleep, but it cruelly evades you, adding insult to injury.
As the attack worsens, even trying to speak becomes a struggle. Confusion clouds your thoughts, the right words just out of reach. The isolation deepens.
That gnawing ache in your neck, the stiffness... it's not a coincidence. For so many, neck pain is an undercurrent to the migraine storm, a clue to the root cause.
If these experiences sound all too familiar, you are not imagining things. Your pain is real, your struggle is valid. And here's the part they may not tell you: those "just migraines" might be linked to issues in your upper cervical spine, issues our TN Migraine Doctor, Dr. Hall is specially trained to find and address. There may be answers and relief beyond just managing symptoms.
Migraines may seem impossible when they kick in, but relief is within reach with the help of our Brentwood migraine chiropractor. You can embark on a journey toward renewed wellness by acknowledging the connection between migraines and yawning and addressing misalignments in the C1 and C2 bones. Misalignments result from accidents, injuries, or the usual wear and tear of your body, which can start from the upper cervical area, affecting the rest.
The C1 and C2 bones are not just bones; they play a crucial role in protecting the brainstem and facilitating the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. Misalignments can disrupt these processes, contributing to migraines. Don't let your condition dictate your life; reclaim it through a holistic approach that can benefit your entire being. Consult our Brentwood Chiropractic doctor today and experience the benefits of this method firsthand.
