La Grande CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH:

Consider Vitamin D for Headache and Neck Pain

Vitamin D deficiency is a worldwide concern projected to affect 30% to 50% of the population. (4) Researchers describe that vitamin D deficiency may well produce or exacerbate neck pain, back pain, and muscle spasm. They state that correcting vitamin D deficiency is vital in treating these conditions since it’s not expensive and offers good results in terms of quality of care and cost. (5) A further review of studies done about vitamin D and headache revealed that there is a link between vitamin D levels and headaches (the strongest link was between vitamin D levels and migraine). Researchers imply that headache sufferers, particularly those with migraines, may lessen the incidence of headache by increasing vitamin D. (6) Simple! Check your vitamin D level, and up it if necessary!
