According to the clinical studies migraine is associated with myofascial pull. It is not only the problem of neck and head but disorientation of the whole body. In most cases migraine is associated with straight cervical spine which is evaluated with cervical MRI. In straight cervical spine the anterior compartment muscles of the neck like Sternocleidomastoid, scalene(Scalenus anterior, scalenus medius, and scalenus posterior) are concentrically tight. And the posterior compartment muscles like trapezius, splenius capitis , splenius cervicis , cervico transverso spinalis muscle , sub occipital muscle etc will go for eccentrically pull. All together the muscle pull between the front and back of neck should be balanced to maintain a good posture. If it’s working in a symphony there won’t be any pain or tension in the head. Along with some clinical studies found out that the malalignment of any joint leads to the insufficiency of the remote muscle results to limitation of the local joint. This is based on the myofascial web concept of the body.
