Are you one of the millions who suffer from migraine's severe symptoms? Are you tired of the constant pain and discomfort that comes with your condition? Do you miss out on important moments of your life because of the debilitating symptoms? Have you tried countless prescription medications only for the cycle to keep happening? Have you always complained about migraine and neck pain to your friends and family, but no one can relate? 

Just like most migraineurs, you too feel completely fed up with your episodes. Heck, you want to put an end to them once and for all. After all, you want to enjoy and live a healthy and content life. 

So, what if we tell you that you can potentially amplify your migraine management efforts and begin to lead a pain-free life with the help of two simple things: seeking an Upper Cervical doctor and drinking our much recommended drinks for migraine relief. Would you take a shot? Learn about these two options as you read on. 

#1. Water

Water is essential for our body and is one of the best drinks to combat migraines. Unfortunately, dehydration is one of the most common triggers of migraines. When you're dehydrated, your blood vessels narrow, triggering a headache. Drinking the recommended amount of water daily can help prevent migraines by keeping your body hydrated. Drinking at least eight glasses of water daily is recommended for proper hydration.

#2. Tea

There are different types of tea that you can try to ease your migraine episodes, including ginger tea, green tea, peppermint tea, or Feverfew tea. You can try each to see which works best for you. Tea is derived from natural leaves with unique anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and calming properties that can help ease and alleviate symptoms. Just make sure you also watch your caffeine intake because, in some cases, caffeine triggers migraines, and some tea has high levels.

#3. Coconut Water

Coconut water is a natural electrolyte that can help combat dehydration, a common trigger of migraines. It's also rich in potassium, which can help reduce muscle tension and cramping, common symptoms of migraines. In addition, coconut water can help replenish your body's fluids and nutrients and be an excellent alternative to sports drinks.

#4. Green Juices & Green Smoothies

Green juices and smoothies are loaded with leafy greens and fruits like bananas that are rich in folate and potassium. Migraines can develop from nutrient deficiency hence supporting your diet with nutrient-dense juices or smoothies can help ease and reduce the frequency of migraine attacks. Add almond milk or coconut water to your green smoothies for more support.

#5. Golden Milk

This is a traditional Ayurvedic drink made with milk, turmeric, and other spices, with turmeric as the star ingredient. Turmeric contains curcumin, a powerful compound known for its anti-inflammatory properties.

Curcumin can help reduce the frequency and severity of your migraine symptoms. You can add a pinch of black pepper to your golden milk recipe to maximize its benefits. Black pepper contains piperine, a compound that can enhance the absorption of curcumin by up to 2,000%. This drink is also popularly known for its immune-boosting properties.

If you have been complaining about frequent migraine and neck pain, why not try one or a combination of these healthy drinks to see if it helps alleviate your symptoms? But for more long-term resolution, you may need to look at what's causing the onset of your symptoms.

You Can Experience Migraine And Neck Pain Relief: Book Your Appointment Today!

If you have a migraine, there's a high chance of neck pain as one of the many symptoms you must deal with. It's usually on the same side as your head pain. But sometimes, the pain and discomfort in your head or eye area are too intense that you can no longer recognize every symptom you experience at once.

Some migraine cases stem from an issue in the neck area, particularly the upper cervical spine. An accident or physical trauma endured in the neck or head, even from many years back, can shift the alignment of your upper cervical spine. When these bones misalign, it can lead to various symptoms and health issues, including migraine. 

Correcting the misalignment through Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care is necessary as they do not heal on their own. If you have been experiencing migraine episodes and your efforts, seem to fall flat, getting your upper cervical spine alignment checked may help.
