Discover the Secret to Instant Headache Relief
Headaches are a very common problem, and it’s one of the most common conditions that we treat in my chiropractic office in Springfield, VA. There are many different types of headaches but one of the most common types of headaches are called cervicogenic headaches. Cervicogenic headaches means the headache is coming from the neck. The headache starts when the spinal joints in the neck become misaligned putting excessive stress on the joints, muscles, and nerves. The excessive stress causes the nerves to become inflamed causing the muscles and joints to tighten up even more, making the headache worse.
Most treatment for headaches involve taking medication which mask the symptoms of the headaches but do not get to the source of the problem. To treat the source of the problem, one of the most effective and safest ways to treat headaches is with chiropractic care. Chiropractic care aligns the spinal joints in the neck taking the pressure off the joints, nerves and muscles. Often patients will notice instant headache relief from a chiropractic adjustment but your chiropractor will also try to determine the cause of the spinal joint misalignment.
There are several common causes of spinal misalignment such as poor posture, improper sleeping position, poor computer ergonomics and stress can all lead to a headache.
Part of any chiropractic treatment plan includes modifying and/or correcting these common causes of spinal misalignment to prevent future injuries to the joints.
If you suffer from headaches, and are tired of taking pills that only mask the symptoms, then try safe and effective chiropractic care. Call your local chiropractor and stop suffering from debilitating headaches. Reclaim your life and start living a pain-free, active lifestyle.
