While most people deal with the symptoms of a migraine headache by downing ibuprofen and retreating to a dark, quiet room, Jason Baum, a doctor of chiropractic since 2006, instead tries to tackle the causes of the pain. To pinpoint the body's "hot spots" and approximate its glow-stick content, he guides each new patient through thermal imaging, a physical exam, and x-rays. Once he understands the roots of discomfort, he manipulates the spine to return vertebrae to their proper positions, naturally alleviating tension and restoring the body's ability to heal itself.
