HEADACHES

Chiropractic care can help with headaches in several ways:

​

        1.      Spinal Adjustments: Chiropractors perform spinal manipulations to correct misalignments (subluxations) that may contribute to tension in the muscles and nerves. This can alleviate tension headaches and help with migraines caused by spinal misalignment.
       2.      Muscle Tension Relief: Chiropractic care often includes soft tissue therapy, which helps to relieve muscle tension and spasms in the neck and upper back. This can reduce tension headaches.
       3.      Stress Reduction: Regular chiropractic care can help reduce overall stress levels, which is a common trigger for headaches.
       4.      Posture Correction: Poor posture can contribute to headaches, especially those originating from the neck. Chiropractors can provide guidance and exercises to improve posture, thereby reducing headache occurrence.
       5.      Lifestyle and Nutritional Advice: Chiropractors often offer advice on diet, exercise, and ergonomics, which can help in managing and preventing headaches.
 

Overall, chiropractic care aims to address the underlying causes of headaches rather than just treating the symptoms, potentially leading to long-term relief.
