The basics
What is headache & migraine relief?
Headaches are a symptom, never a diagnosis. The pain you feel above the eyes, behind the head, or wrapping the temples almost always traces back to upper-neck mechanics, hydration and food triggers, sleep posture, or hormonal cycles. Treat the driver, the headache fades.
Our process
How headache & migraine relief works at Synergy Spine
- 01
We classify your headache pattern (cervicogenic, tension, migraine, cluster).
- 02
A focused upper-cervical and TMJ exam to find joint and muscle drivers.
- 03
Adjustments and soft-tissue work matched to the pattern.
- 04
Trigger logging, food, sleep, screen time, so we can fix what's repeatable.

FAQ
Common questions about headache & migraine relief in Albuquerque
QCan a chiropractor really help migraines?
For migraines with a cervical or postural driver, yes, published research supports chiropractic care for reducing migraine frequency and intensity. For purely vascular or hormonal migraines, our role is supportive alongside your primary care plan.
QHow long until my headaches improve?
Most cervicogenic and tension headache patients in Albuquerque feel meaningful change within 24 weeks. Migraine patterns shift more slowly, we evaluate at week 8.
QDo I have to come forever?
No. Once your headaches are under control we taper to maintenance, for most patients that's once a month or less.
QAre pediatric headaches treated differently?
Yes. Kids with headaches are usually carrying screen-driven posture or sleep-driven jaw tension. We adjust gently and coach the parents on screen and sleep habits.
