Migraines are more than just headaches — they can disrupt every part of your life.
Affecting millions across the UK, migraines often cause throbbing head pain, nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and visual disturbances. For some, they strike occasionally; for others, they’re a frequent, debilitating challenge that impacts work, relationships, and daily routines.
Triggers can vary — from stress and poor sleep to posture and neck tension, which is why we take a holistic approach. While chiropractic care isn’t a cure for migraines, it may help by improving spinal movement, reducing tension, and supporting nervous system function.
This drug-free approach is part of a wider strategy to manage migraines naturally — potentially reducing their frequency and helping you get back to living more freely and confidently.
Common migraine symptoms can include:
Migraine symptoms can vary widely from person to person — and even from one episode to the next. Some people experience warning signs hours or days before a migraine begins, while others may be affected suddenly and without clear triggers.
Migraines can be triggered by a variety of physical, environmental, and lifestyle factors. For many people, it’s not just one thing, but a combination that builds over time.
For those who regularly rely on painkillers, overuse of medication can actually lead to rebound headaches, creating a frustrating cycle.
At our Solihull clinics, we work with you to identify these patterns and personal triggers, combining that insight with hands-on chiropractic care to support spinal health, reduce tension, and help you manage migraines more effectively.
No two migraines are the same — and that’s why your diagnosis should never be one-size-fits-all.
At our Solihull clinics, we don’t just treat symptoms — we ask the right questions to uncover what’s really going on beneath the surface.
Your journey starts with a detailed one-on-one conversation with one of our experienced chiropractors who will take time to understand your experience with migraines including, how often they occur, what they feel like, when they started, and what impact they’re having on your life. We also explore factors like posture, stress, lifestyle, and previous injuries that might be contributing to your symptoms.
Next comes a thorough physical examination, tailored to your needs. This might include:
We take a whole-body view, because migraines don’t exist in isolation. If we feel additional investigations, such as imaging or a referral, would be helpful, we’ll explain our reasoning and help guide you forward.
By piecing together the bigger picture, we can offer care that’s not only safe and drug-free, but also more specific to your body and your goals.
Once we understand what’s contributing to your migraines, we create a plan that works with your body — not against it.
At our Solihull & Sutton Coldfield clinics, migraine care is never rushed or generic. We focus on gentle, targeted treatment that helps reduce physical tension, restore natural movement, and support your nervous system — all without the use of medication.
Your personalised care plan may include:
Our goal isn’t just short-term relief, but to support your body in becoming more resilient and less reactive to everyday triggers.
