Understanding headaches
Headaches are one of the most common pain conditions, affecting nearly everyone at some point. But when headaches become frequent or chronic, they can severely impact your quality of life.
What many people don't realize is that a significant percentage of headaches — especially tension headaches and migraines — originate from problems in the neck and upper spine. These are called cervicogenic headaches.
Chiropractic care has been shown to be highly effective for many types of headaches because it addresses spinal misalignments, muscle tension, and nerve irritation that often trigger headache pain.
