DR. MIKE HENRICKSON: We see a lot of patients that come into our office that have chronic pain from migraine headaches. And from research that’s out there today, what we've found out is that we can get rid of 80% of these people’s headaches, the patients that have migraines. This is huge for them. They love that. And it’s a quick and easy painless procedure.

One of the great things we can do to get rid of patients’ headaches, make them more comfortable, is equilibrating or fixing their bite. We can also make them comfortable through night guard therapy. Now what this does is it helps a patient’s muscles go from very tight and tensed to completely relaxed. It helps the patients reduce their amount of headaches that they have in the morning and gives them a general feel of comfort throughout the day.

Just recently, I had a patient come in that had very tight head and neck muscles. She had tons of pain. We equilibrated her, made her bite fit perfectly, and made her a night guard to wear at night. This totally relaxed her muscles.

The next time I saw her when she came in, these muscles were completely relaxed. She was a different person. She came in. She was excited; she was happy. It’s just one of the great things we can do for our patients here at our office.
