Headaches

A dull or throbbing pain. Headaches can range from slightly uncomfortable to highly debilitating and are one of the most common pain conditions experienced worldwide.

There are more than 150 types of headaches, and they have many causes. These include looking downward at digital devices and lacking the proper curve in the cervical spine, which will tighten the surrounding neck muscles as a means of compensation.

Our Treatment Approach

Chiropractic care can help with your treamtmeant of Headaches.Your muscles naturally produce lactic acid when they become overused. If this lactic acid doesn’t get flushed out of the body, it binds together to create a trigger point (tender/tight spot). Dr. Steve breaks up the trigger points by hand or can use a machine that breaks the scar tissue up….called the Rapid Release machine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there other drug-free ways to decrease my discomfort?

Yes, you can consider using relaxation techniques, doing yoga, or trying acupuncture, all of which may help.

Can avoiding certain foods help relieve my head pain?

Possibly. For example, Parmesan cheese, dark chocolate, and red wine can cause headaches in many people. If you notice you get head pain after consuming these or other foods and beverages, it’s a good idea to eliminate them from your diet.

How many visits will I need?

Depending on muscle tightness, Dr. Steve can usually eliminate the headache in most cases in 1-2 treatments. 1 is the most common number. Migraines are typically 3-4 treatments before continuous relief begins to occur. These are just typical numbers. They, in no way represent the entire population….but rather typical numbers seen by Dr. Steve over almost 3 decades of practicing Chiropractic.
