I suffered from migraines for almost three years
after a car accident. I went to a chiropractor
and had physical therapy for nearly a year. It
helped with my neck pain, but I would still get
migraines so bad that I would have to leave work.
I tried changing my diet, avoiding caffeine,
reducing stress, and made sure I got enough
sleep, but it only helped a little. My co-worker
told me about VPT because it helped her husband,
but I was skeptical because I had had so much
care over the years, and nothing worked. A month
ago, I was so depressed because I had to leave
work because of another migraine. My co-worker
reminded me to give VPT a try, so I did out of
desperation.

It was amazing how easy it was. I downloaded the
app and scheduled an appointment. While sitting
at home, I was able to connect with my therapist,
Brian. He asked me a bunch of questions and then
had me move my head. Right away, he found that I
had tightness and explained that my posture and
tight tissues in my upper neck were causing my
headaches. He gave me an exercise, and at the end
of my first session, my headache was not as bad,
but I was still skeptical.

Brian followed up by e-mail the next day. I did
the exercise that he gave me four times and had
not had a headache, but thought it was just a
matter of time before another one would come. Two
days later, I did start to get a headache after a
long day on the computer. I did my exercises and
it went away. I have now been headache free for
two weeks! I understand what positions trigger my
headaches and how I can stop them as soon as I
notice the initial symptoms. I am so grateful to
my therapist Brian and the convenience of VPT
because after three years of migraines that
crippled me not only with pain but also doubt and
fear, I am now headache free and feel confident
and in control. Jen P. (CA)
