Understanding Headaches & Migraines

Headaches and migraines can have multiple triggers, from muscle tension and postural issues to stress, dehydration, or nervous system dysfunction. Common types include:

  • Tension headaches – often caused by tight neck and shoulder muscles
  • Cervicogenic headaches – originating from neck misalignments
  • Migraines – neurological events often accompanied by visual disturbances, nausea, or sensitivity to light

By addressing spinal alignment, soft tissue strain, and lifestyle triggers, chiropractic care offers a natural, non-pharmaceutical option for managing these conditions.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help with Headaches & Migraines

Spinal Adjustments: Using precise, gentle chiropractic adjustments, especially the Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT), we relieve pressure on nerves and improve spinal function. This often reduces the frequency and intensity of tension and cervicogenic headaches.

Soft Tissue Therapy: Muscular tension in the neck, shoulders, and upper back can be a key contributor to headaches. Our tailored soft tissue therapy techniques release tight muscle groups and restore natural movement.

Postural & Ergonomic Advice: Many modern headaches stem from poor workstation setup and screen use. We offer posture and lifestyle advice to help improve spinal alignment and reduce future strain.

Lifestyle & Stress Management: We guide you through identifying headache triggers, from sleep and hydration to diet and stress.
