Headaches

Trouble concentrating at work? Throbbing pain? Discomfort while sitting or lying down? Missed work or school days? Headaches are no fun, we get it. We are here to help.

Common treatments for headaches include over the counter medications and prescription drugs. Headaches can be caused by a multitude of stressors. If you are looking to a natural non-drug approach to help your body function more optimally, chiropractic may be for you.

Research
Chiropractic is not a treatment for headaches or migraines. Some research does support chiropractic care and its relationship to headaches and migraines.

One study supports spinal manipulations (chiropractic adjustments) and the decreased need for the over the counter medication in patients suffering from tension headaches.

One study compared the effectiveness of spinal manipulation and pharmaceutical treatment for the treatment of tension headaches. “The results of this study show that spinal manipulative therapy is an effective treatment for tension headaches.”

“…use of medication was reduced by 94%”
In a study done with patients suffering from migraine headaches, the “average frequency of episodes (migraines) was reduced on average by 90%, duration of each episode by 38%, and use of medication was reduced by 94%. In addition, several associated symptoms were substantially reduced, including nausea, vomiting, photophobia and phonophobia.”
