When the room spins but you’re not moving, and your head throbs like it’s caught in a storm, it’s more than just a headache—it’s a combination that many don’t even realize exists: migraine-associated vertigo. I’ve had migraines for years, and for the longest time, I thought the dizziness was just a side symptom. Turns out,…
Not sure if you’ve been there—but I remember lying awake at 2 a.m., eyes wide open, head throbbing, and all I could think was, “Why does this always hit at night?” It took me a while (and a lot of trial and error) to figure out that what I did in the hour before bed…
I still remember a winter road trip through the Rockies when the inside of the car felt like a desert. My lips were cracking, my throat dry, and, just hours into the drive, a throbbing migraine crept in. Back then, I didn’t connect the dots. But turns out, dry air—especially in winter—can be a sneaky…

I used to think walking was just about getting from point A to point B. But after years of dealing with unpredictable migraines and trying every remedy under the sun—from prescription meds to acupuncture—I stumbled across something so deceptively simple that I nearly laughed.
