Migraine Headaches

[Clare Gordon]

There is no rhyme or reason as to who gets migraines during pregnancy and who wont. It all depends on the person and how their body reacts to the changes that pregnancy brings about.

I can understand about not wanting to be taking too many drugs during pregnancy but there are alternatives when it comes to finding a solution. Often having a treatment that reduces tension in the body can be of great benefit. Re-aligning the body so that there arent any restrictions on specific areas of the spine and body can help with normalising the nervous system (important for everything!) and fluid pooling (increase in fluid pressure in the head, in particular in the arteries, is the most common cause of migraines). And as every women who has been pregnant can tell you, there is definitely an increase in fluid retention! Just ask those swollen ankles!
