Headaches & Migraines: The Upper Cervical Missing Piece (Blair Technique + Nervous System Plan)
Sunday, 4 January, 2026
One of the most common things I hear from new patients is: “I don’t even care what it takes — I just want my life back.” And if there’s one thing we consistently see people turn the corner on at Atlas Rising, it’s headaches and migraines—not with a quick fix, but with a plan.In this episode, I walk you through how we approach recurring headaches and migraines using a simple framework: mechanics, neurology, and chemistry. We start with the upper cervical spine and the Blair Technique—a precise, individualized approach designed to correct your specific pattern—then we layer in the support pieces that help your nervous system stabilize: nutrition, inflammation support, hydration/electrolytes, and recovery strategies.If you’ve tried the usual answers and nothing truly sticks, this episode will help you understand the “signal” your body is sending—so you can stop guessing and start building a strategy that actually holds.Quick note: This is educational, not medical advice. If you’re having sudden or severe symptoms, or something feels different than normal, get evaluated right away.The 3 drivers behind most headache patterns: mechanics / neurology / chemistryCommon headache and migraine patterns (base of skull, one-sided, behind the eye, jaw tension, screen-time headaches)Why the upper neck is often overlooked (especially after whiplash, concussions, falls, posture strain)What makes Blair upper cervical different (precision over force)Why the goal isn’t constant adjustments—it’s holding correction and building stabilityHow blood sugar swings, dehydration, inflammation, and sleep can lower your thresholdIf you want help mapping your pattern, book a consultation at Atlas Rising and we’ll help you determine whether the upper cervical connection is part of your story—and build a plan that fits your body.Atlas Rising528 S Otterbein Ave, Westerville, OH 43081https://www.atlasrising.com/(614) 898-9195Atlas Rising is a transformative wellness clinic in Westerville, Ohio, formerly known as Westerville Chiropractic & Nutrition.
