What Causes Migraines?

Migraines can develop due to a variety of contributing factors, including:

• Poor posture and tech neck
• Chronic stress
• Previous concussions
• Whiplash injuries
• Sleep disturbances
• Muscle tension
• Hormonal changes
• Environmental triggers

Because every migraine case is different, a thorough evaluation is essential before beginning treatment.
