Understanding Migraines and Headaches

Migraines and chronic headaches are more than just pain — they’re neurological storms that can disrupt every part of your life. Whether it’s throbbing migraines, tension headaches, or cervicogenic pain radiating from the neck, these conditions often come from underlying imbalances in the spine and nervous system. At Legend Chiropractic Excelsior, we focus on identifying the root cause instead of simply masking symptoms with medication. Our neurologic chiropractic approach uses advanced assessments and specific adjustments to restore communication between the brain and body. By addressing spinal misalignments, reducing nerve interference, and calming overstimulated pathways, we help your body regulate pain naturally. If you’re in Excelsior, Shorewood, Minnetonka, or Chanhassen, our goal is to provide lasting headache relief so you can get back to living with clarity, focus, and energy — without being sidelined by constant pain.

Types of Headaches We Help Relieve

Headaches are not all the same — and understanding the type you’re experiencing is the first step toward real relief. At Legend Chiropractic Excelsior, we commonly work with individuals dealing with:

  • Tension headaches, often caused by muscle strain, stress, and poor posture.

  • Migraines, intense and throbbing, sometimes lasting days and accompanied by light or sound sensitivity, nausea, or vision changes.

  • Cervicogenic headaches, which begin in the neck due to spinal misalignments or restricted movement and radiate pain to the head or behind the eyes.

By addressing the underlying structural and neurological causes, our goal is to reduce frequency, intensity, and reliance on medications — so you can focus on living without the constant interruption of headache pain.

Migraine Relief FAQs

  • Migraines and chronic headaches often stem from neurologic interference and abnormal muscle tone in the upper neck and brainstem. When stress, trauma, or posture imbalances disrupt normal nerve communication, the body can enter a chronic stress response state, leading to pain and pressure. At Legend Chiropractic Excelsior in Excelsior, Minnesota, we use precise neurologic chiropractic adjustments to restore communication between the brain and body—helping patients across Excelsior, Shorewood, Minnetonka, Chanhassen, and Victoria experience long-term migraine and headache relief.

  • Traditional chiropractic care often focuses on spinal position alone. Neurologic chiropractic focuses on how the nervous system controls muscle tone, blood flow, and pain perception. Using Torque Release Technique and CLA Insight scanning technology, we identify and correct specific areas of nerve interference—especially in the upper cervical spine and brainstem, where small dysfunctions can trigger significant pain patterns.

  • Yes. Many migraines are linked to hormonal fluctuations and chronic stress that keep the body locked in “fight or flight.” We use Heart Rate Variability (HRV) testing to measure how your body manages stress and recovery. An abnormal HRV pattern can reveal hidden stress loads that affect the pituitary, thyroid, and adrenal glands, disrupting hormone balance and triggering migraines. Balancing the nervous system helps stabilize these patterns naturally.

  • Absolutely. Car accidents, sports injuries, whiplash, or years of tension can alter muscle tone and nerve function in the neck. Through CLA EMG scanning, we measure abnormal muscle activity that may be pulling on the cervical spine and creating tension around the skull and brainstem. Correcting these patterns can reduce inflammation, pressure, and pain frequency without relying on medication.

  • We provide advanced neurologic migraine and headache relief for patients across Excelsior, Shorewood, Minnetonka, Chanhassen, Deephaven, and Victoria, Minnesota. Our office is located at 24000 Highway 7, Suite 201, Shorewood, MN 55331, right near Lake Minnetonka. Legend Chiropractic Excelsior specializes in restoring balance to the nervous system for long-term results.

  • At Legend Chiropractic Excelsior, we perform an in-depth neurologic evaluation using three advanced Insight scanning technologies:

    • Heart Rate Variability (HRV): Determines how your body adapts to stress and measures whether you’re stuck in a chronic stress response.

    • Thermal Scan: Detects nerve interference and inflammation around the brainstem and upper cervical spine, common sources of headaches.

    • Surface EMG (Electromyography): Measures muscle tone and activity in the upper neck, where tension can be up to eight times higher than normal in migraine sufferers.

    These findings allow Dr. Axel Osborn to create a precise care plan that restores normal nerve communication, improves hormonal regulation, and relieves pressure on the brainstem—helping you experience life free from chronic headaches and migraines.
