Chiropractic care can provide long-term headache relief by addressing the cause of the headache, instead of masking symptoms with medication.
Common causes of headaches include misalignment of the vertebrae, called subluxation. Subluxation can disrupt nerve function and blood flow which can lead to headaches. We evaluate our patients to see if there is a chance that subluxation is the root cause of their headaches. We will do a visual posture check, palpation of the spine, and then take a complete history. Next, we will do specific orthopedic and neurological tests followed by digital x-rays and a computerized posture exam.
By treating the root cause of headaches, chiropractic care avoids the potential risk of side effects from medication since it is a drug-free treatment.
Chiropractic care also supports better posture, better nervous system function, and improved overall health.
