Dr. Allison Has Been There...
We understand because Dr. Allison has been there. She has dealt with the unbearable symptoms of true migraines where even trying to think hurt every last fiber in her body. She missed a lot of school, time with friends and family, sports, extracurricular activities, vacations; she missed time just being a kid.
She tried the daily medications. Her doctors increased her dosages to levels most wouldn’t even imagine giving a 9 year old girl. It wasn’t until she started receiving Chiropractic Care that her migraines improved dramatically. She was able to stop taking her medications and instead was routinely adjusted. Everyone thought it was miraculous, but in reality it was simple: she had Subluxations in her spine, which caused erratic behavior in her nervous system and symptomatically, she had migraines. When her chiropractor began adjusting her spine, her nervous system was able to function properly and she began to have less and less migraines.
