Headaches and Migraines
Spinal Headache or Migraine? Chiropractic Care Could Be Your Hero
A staggering 90% of Americans suffer from headaches, ranging from occasional to those who get a headache every afternoon. Severe headaches and migraines can also include nausea, vomiting, or light and sound sensitivity. The pain can often be so intense that sufferers cannot engage in normal daily activities.
If you suffer from migraines or tension headaches, you may have tried over-the-counter or prescription medication. Unfortunately, these drugs are often not effective or have unpleasant side effects. However, there is good news, and it’s not another pharmaceutical. Some of types of headaches can be effectively treated through chiropractic therapy, particularly muscle tension headaches and migraines that stem from spinal misalignment in the neck.
Spine-Related Causes of Headaches and Migraines
If you suffer from migraines or can practically set your clock by when you get a headache every afternoon, your pain could be caused by conditions and habits that can be corrected by chiropractic therapy. Here are some causes of headaches that The Chirospot can offer treatment for:
- Poor posture
- Sedentary jobs
- Stress leading to muscle tention
- Pinched nerve
- Chronic spinal misalignment
Any of these factors can contribute to stress on the cervical
spine and lead to headaches.
A special kind of headache known as a spinal headache is caused when the fluid that surrounds your brain leaks into the tissue enveloping your spinal cord and brain. A spinal headache often occurs after receiving a spinal tap procedure. A cyst on the spinal cord that ruptures can also cause a spinal headache, as well as head trauma from an accident. A spinal headache is rarely serious, but the pain can be quite disruptive. Fortunately, upper cervical care from an experienced chiropractor can reduce the physical stress, normalize the spinal fluid pressure, and decrease the inflammation caused by a spinal headache.
