  Speaker 1: Time off or back to the basics and healthcare with
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Maulace Life Chiropractic. We have doctor Harley with us. How
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: you doing, doctor Harley?
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Hey John, another beautiful week ahead.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so last week it was eighty degrees and then
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: we had like rain and snow and yeah, this time
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: of year, you just never know what you're going.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Again, right, And that's why a lot of times we
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: talked this time you're about some of our health problems
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: that can be related to weather change, because especially you know,
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: spring is very much up and down here in the Midwest.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: We have really nice days and we have snow, winter
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: comeback for a few.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Days, fake spring again and real winter again.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Right, and you might be, you know, tired of it too.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: And maybe you're you know, because your head is hurting
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: so much. I've been getting headaches and migraines. Well, we
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: were just talking about this before when I was telling
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: you about what I want to talk about today. Yeah,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: my phone's weather app had updated not too long ago.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: And now every time there's like a big system or
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: pressure change. Yeah, there's like a little blurp on the
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: app saying pressure change. Colle to migraines. This week is
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: like it's interesting. I mean, it makes sense.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: So if there's like warm front rolling in or a
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: cold front, some pressure change that could actually cause you
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: to have headaches, right.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Which you know, we think about migraines. They're very episodic
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: in nature.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: A lot of times that's a pretty word, episodic.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Very fancy it is. Really what's happening is the pressure
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: in your head builds up too much and that can
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: really lead to triggering those migraines. A lot of times
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: people don't have a rhyme or reason or a trigger
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: for their migraines, but that pressure just gets so much
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: that a migraine comes on and then it lasts for
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: however long it lasts because that pressure starts to recede slowly.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: And you're wondering, well, that's great and all, but what
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: you as a chiropractor, what is this going to do
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: to help with migraines. Well, a lot of times the
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: upper neck bones in our spine actually are out of
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: alignment and that's affecting how that pressure is changing in
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: our head. Because there's a lot of fluid that hangs
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: out in our nervous system keeps it hydrated and helps,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: you know, bring waste products in and out fresh fluid,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and that comes through our skull and those top to
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: bones in our neck I think are like kind of
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: like a drain in a bathtub, and in this case,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: we want that drain always open so that the water,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: that fluid can be constantly draining and refreshing. But what
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: happens when we have upper cervical or upper neck misslign
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: is it kind of puts like a stopper, It plugs
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: it up. So now that pressure is really starting to
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: build up, leading to headaches, migraines, and all sorts of
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: not so fun things. So we as chiropractice and we're
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: adjusting the upper neck. That helps restore that proper flow
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: of fluid, taking that pressure out, helping release the pressure
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: out of your head, which is where we see helping
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: get rid of those migraines.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: So all of the stuff you just said, I heard
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: you say, I can help you if you have an
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: ali head, yeah right, if you have a booboo between
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: your ears. I'm sorry. No, I just again, very impressive
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: all the stuff that you talk about. But that is
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: a lot more than most people think about. What we
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: think about is, man, I got a headache, and there
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: are some people who suffer from migraines episodically. I discovered
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: today if that's you know, recurring, they have this over
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: and over and over. So if they have that, they
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: might not even realize that chiropractic could actually potentially be
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: one of the things they could do to help alleviate
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: that exactly.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I know, like when we first have a pain, our
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: first instinct is to take whatever over the counter pain
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: medication that it's canna help us feel better, but it's
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: not stopping what's causing the headaches for the migraine, so
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: they keep coming back. Where we find with chiropractic we've
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: been able to help get rid of migraines. I had
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: a patient that they used to have a migraine every week.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: It'd last a couple of days, so they'd have multiple
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: migraines a month, and they had been having it since
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: they were four. I think she's in her thirties or
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: forties now, and you know, maybe we couldn't get rid
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: of the migraines at one hundred percent, but after a
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: few weeks of care, you know, she's noticed that they
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: had gotten better. And then over the course of a
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: couple of months. She's like, I haven't had a migraine
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: in two months, because her first one showed up after
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: she had started. She's like, I just had a migraine
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: and we're like, oh no, that's not great. But for her,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: she had gone two months in her entire life now
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: without a migraine. Huge.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: That is huge, and that's something that if you struggle
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: without or if you know some of the struggles with that,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I would encourage you to reach out to doctor Harley.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: How do they do that, I think give us a
• 4:07
