A Patient Success Story

One of our patients, Stirling M., is a married woman in her 20s, with a history of weekly migraines. The headaches were so debilitating, she had to lie down until they passed. Dr. Sandy recommended a care plan with a few weekly visits to start. Stirling received regular adjustments and cervical decompression therapy. After a few months of care at Ager Chiropractic Wellness Center, she experienced incredible results. Check out our blog to find out more!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long until patients typically notice relief?

Patients often start seeing a reduction in the frequency and intensity of their headaches within the first few weeks of care.

Can eliminating certain foods help relieve my pain?

Food triggers are often a cause of headaches. When patients aren’t getting the expected results with the care in the office alone, they are often encouraged to log their food and headaches in a journal so that we can identify any patterns.
