Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is a silent migraine?
Silent migraines have all the symptoms of regular migraines – visual disturbances, dizziness, nausea – but without the headache pain. You might experience aura, light sensitivity, or confusion. These episodes can last from minutes to hours and significantly impact daily activities.
Upper cervical misalignment often triggers neurological symptoms. Our gentle Orthospinology adjustments can help reduce migraine frequency naturally.
How do I know if I’m having silent migraines?
Common signs include seeing zigzag patterns, temporary vision loss, tingling in hands or face, and difficulty speaking clearly. Many patients report feeling “off” or experiencing brain fog. Symptoms typically develop gradually over 5-20 minutes.
Dr. Taylor’s comprehensive F3 exam can identify if C1 misalignment contributes to your neurological symptoms.
Can silent migraines happen daily in Plano’s climate?
Yes, North Texas weather changes, particularly barometric pressure shifts, can trigger daily silent migraines. Heat, bright sunlight, and seasonal allergies common to Plano also increase frequency. Indoor air conditioning transitions worsen symptoms for many.
Regular gentle adjustments help your nervous system adapt better to environmental triggers, potentially reducing episode frequency.
