If you've had migraines for years, you've probably been told to manage triggers, take the medication, and live with it. This episode is about the part nobody examined: the relationship between the top of your neck, the brainstem, and the pressure patterns that show up as migraine. This isn't about trying harder. It was never about trying harder.
"Nobody asked what was happening at the top of her neck. Not once, in eleven years."
In this episode
The story you've been told about migraines
Trigger management, medication rotations, and why 'you'll just have to live with it' was never a diagnosis.
What's at the top of your neck
The atlas, the brainstem, and why pressure at this junction shows up as head pain, light sensitivity, and brain fog.
Why feeling better isn't the same as getting better
What symptom relief actually tells you — and what it doesn't.
What a real evaluation looks like
Insight scans, Posture IQ, Digital Motion X-Ray, and how a 16-page diagnostic report differs from a 10-minute consult.
A listener's question, answered on air
Eleven years of migraines, four neurologists, and the question she never got to ask.
