Can't help on the drug side of things but I found Chiro helps reduce the number of migraines I get a year - was getting multiple ones now I'm down to about 2-3 a year and they're not too bad, not needing too many drugs to ease them.
Sometimes a migraine can be headed off at the pass if you take a largish dose of aspirin at the very first signs - if you can learn what your prodrome symptoms are and take it then, sometimes that's enough. You might still get some of the funny sensations but the pain itself will be more manageable.
DH found great relief from chiro too - went from frequent headaches that had him throwing up with the pain (dr ruled out migraines after extensive testing) at least once a week down to one a year, coincidentally two days after he missed a chiro appointment. He tried physio, numerous pain and migraine meds (prescription and OTC) with no effect.
Sitting in a hot shower with the water running over his head helped a little too (temporarily).
