Hi there from Migrainville AZ,
I thought...
Good to hear your son is feeling better. There a many complementary therapies Migraineurs use. Some Migraine specialists do not recommend chiropractic manipulation for the neck, lower back ok.
Biofeedback, massage, PT, acupressure are a few options your son can try. You can find more information on complementary therpies HERE. This information is on another HealthCentral site, Chronic Pain.
How many Migraine's is your son still getting? If he is getting more than 4 a month he may need to see a Migraine specialist, an expert in Migraine disease and headache disorders. You can find our patient recommended list HERE.
Good luck and I hope your son continues to improve.
