FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the root cause of migraine headaches?
Migraines often don’t have just one cause; they’re usually the result of multiple imbalances in the body. Some common root causes include:
- Hormonal changes (like around periods or menopause)
- Gut issues or food sensitivities
- Chronic stress and nervous system overload
- Toxic buildup or poor detox pathways
- Sleep disturbances
- Nutrient deficiencies (like magnesium or B vitamins)
At Conscious Medicine, we look at the whole picture, not just symptoms, to help you understand what’s triggering your migraines and how to heal from the inside out.
What root helps with migraines?
Certain natural roots have been used to relieve migraine symptoms. One well-known option is:
- Feverfew root is a traditional herb known to reduce the frequency and intensity of migraines in some people.
Another helpful one is:
- Ginger root can reduce nausea and inflammation during a migraine attack.
We recommend using herbs under guidance, especially if you’re also taking medications or have other health conditions.
Can a bad root canal cause migraines?
Yes, in some cases, a poorly done or infected root canal can contribute to ongoing inflammation or hidden infections, which may trigger headaches or migraines.
At Conscious Medicine, we consider dental health as part of your whole-body picture. If your migraines don’t respond to usual treatments, we may explore oral health and past dental procedures as potential root causes.
What is your body lacking when you have a migraine?
Many people with migraines are low in key nutrients or imbalanced in ways that increase sensitivity. Common deficiencies include:
- Magnesium – helps relax muscles and nerves
- Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) – supports energy production
- CoQ10 – boosts mitochondrial health
- Omega-3s – reduce inflammation
- Electrolytes – low hydration can trigger migraines
We use targeted testing to check for these imbalances and create a plan that supports your body’s natural rhythm.
What is the holistic medicine for migraines?
Holistic care means treating the person, not just the pain. At Conscious Medicine, our migraine support may include:
- Diet and nutrition changes
- Stress and sleep support
- Herbal or supplement protocols
- Acupuncture or craniosacral therapy
- Hormone and gut health balancing
- Personalized detox plans (if needed)
Our goal is to uncover why your migraines are happening and support your body’s natural ability to heal and stay in balance.
