Headaches

There are many types of headaches that you may experience. Some result from muscle tension or stress, food allergies, and some are hereditary. They may be connected with prolonged visual strain, stress, anxiety, trauma and others.

Chiropractic

Chiropractic adjustments remove the nerve and spinal stress caused by spinal distortion. This distortion if not addressed can damage your nerves, inflame tissues, and cause muscles to tighten. Muscle tension headaches, or "stress headaches" make up 90% of all headaches. Many patients find relief from their migraines through chiropractic care. In conjunction with spinal adjustments that help to realign the vertebrae, soft tissue techniques such as trigger point therapy may be used to help relax tight muscles.

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy reduces the firing of the nervous system which helps to normalize muscular tone. Painful muscle spasms are reduced by treating trigger points and circulation is increased to compromised tissue. During the course of a headache massage is used to induce relaxation.
