Effect of Atlas Vertebrae Realignment in Subjects with Migraine: An Observational Pilot Study

Table 2

Subject intracranial compliance index (ICCI) data (). PC-MRI⁶ acquired ICCI¹ data reported at baseline, week four, and week eight following NUCCA⁵ intervention. Bolded rows signify subject with secondary venous drainage route. MVA or mTBI occurred at least 5 years prior to study inclusion, average 10 years.
