Headaches are mostly ‘cervicogenic’ in nature, which means that they come from pressure on the nerves coming from the neck.
Nearly 50% of the population suffer from headaches of some form. Some of these headaches can be very debilitating and affect your focus or concentration, or impact the ability to do the things you want to do.
Migraines are the worst kind of headache, which can cause you to seek a dark room, have nausea, or even vomit for days at a time. The pain can be so severe at times that it can cause interference with your daily activities.
There are many things that you can do at home in between chiropractic appointments that may help with headaches or migraines, including:
Poor alignment causes muscles to not work properly, which further puts pressure on vital nerves coming out of the neck. Chiropractic care is designed to correct those misalignments of the spine called subluxations. Subluxations can occur from physical, emotional or chemical stress.
It is important not to ignore headaches or migraines because the condition may get worse over time. Repeated movements, such as heavy lifting or even spending hours in the same office chair, can strain muscles and tissues in your neck, complicating headaches further.
Here at Elevation Health, we use advanced postural and digital x-ray analysis to first be certain of the cause of your problem, and then use state of the art adjusting and a spinal remodeling program to correct those causes without drugs or invasive surgery.
