Headaches & Migraines

Do you often find yourself battling headaches? If so, you're not alone. Headaches can be a real pain, and they come in different forms. Three common types of headaches that people seek relief from through chiropractic therapy are cervicogenic headaches, migraines, and tension headaches. The interesting thing is that each of these headaches responds differently to chiropractic treatment. 

Get Lasting Relief from Headaches and Migraines

If you often suffer from tension headaches, it's possible that you have cervical musculoskeletal (MSK) impairments in your neck. These impairments can contribute to your headaches, and chiropractic care can help. Chiropractors use a combination of techniques, including spinal manipulation, soft tissue therapy like trigger point therapy, stretching exercises, and stress management, to address these issues.

Spinal manipulation involves gentle instrument or manual adjustments to your spine to improve mobility, reduce pain and inflammation, and ease muscle tension. It's like giving your spine a little tune-up! Soft tissue therapy, like trigger point therapy, targets specific muscle knots or "trigger points" to release tension. Stretching and strengthening exercises help keep your muscles strong, flexible, and relaxed, while stress management techniques can help you reduce the emotional and physical stress that often triggers tension headaches.

Remember, everyone's experience with headaches is unique, so it's important to consult with a qualified chiropractor who can tailor a treatment plan to your specific needs. With the right chiropractic care, you can take significant steps toward finding relief from the pain and discomfort of headaches, improving your overall well-being, and enjoying better quality of life.

Cervicogenic/tension headaches

If you often suffer from tension headaches, it's possible that you have cervical musculoskeletal (MSK) impairments in your neck. These impairments can contribute to your headaches, and chiropractic care can help. Chiropractors use a combination of techniques, including spinal manipulation, soft tissue therapy like trigger point therapy, stretching exercises, and stress management, to address these issues.

Migraines

Migraines can be incredibly painful and disruptive, but chiropractic care can offer relief in various ways. Neuromuscular massage, also known as trigger point therapy, is one effective method. During this type of massage, the therapist targets trigger points in your back, shoulders, neck, and head. By relaxing these muscles, improving blood flow, and reducing stress, they can help alleviate migraine symptoms.

Another approach for migraines is multidisciplinary care intervention. This method combines various strategies, including specific exercises, relaxation techniques, stress management, and dietary counseling. By adopting a holistic approach, you can reduce the pain, frequency, duration, and disability associated with migraines.
