Spinal manipulation administered by chiropractors, spinal manipulation administered by medical practitioners
and physical therapists and a mobilization procedure administered by physical therapists was studied.
Eighty-five (85) patients received two manipulations per week over a 2-month period. At the end of the study, all
three groups showed clinically significant improvement in the frequency, intensity, and duration of migraine
headache episodes.

It now appears clear that chiropractic care may be used to assist patients with migraine. Research is currently
being undertaken to investigate the potential mechanisms of chiropractic in the treatment of migraine. This
research should also assess what (if any) prognostic signs can be identified to assist practitioners making a
more informed decision on the treatment of choice for migraine.

Tension Headaches:
American Chiropractic Association
A report released in 2001 by researchers at the Duke University Evidence-Based Practice Center in Durham,
NC, found that spinal manipulation resulted in almost immediate improvement for those headaches that
originate in the neck, and had significantly fewer side effects and longer-lasting relief of tension-type headache
than a commonly prescribed medication.
