Hi,

It doesn't make much sense that the PT to your knee would direcly trigger Migraines, but anything is possible. Also, it's important to remember that any time our body is under stress, we're more susceptible to our triggers.

This is something you'd do well to mention to your doctor too.

I thought the electrical pulses applied to knee could be triggering my

migraines. Thanks you.
