- While the majority of people think that chiropractic care is primarily meant to treat backaches and joint pain, various reports say that a larger portion of patients seek chiropractic treatment for headaches that can be severe and debilitating. The most common types of headaches are:
- Tension headaches: The most common type of headache which is primarily caused by muscle spasms, tension, stress, emotional disturbance, and food allergies.
- Cervicogenic headaches (headaches originating in the neck): This type of headache is characterised by pain at the bottom of the skull and down the neck, often with pain behind the eyes. Symptoms include neck pain and dizziness, with this kind of headache being common after motor vehicle accidents.
- Migraine headaches: A genetically inherited disorder of varying severity. Stress, car accidents, and muscle tightness are found to trigger migraine headaches.
- Over the years, it has been proven that chiropractic care is extremely effective in treating tension headaches and headaches that emerge from the neck. Today, chiropractic is widely being used to treat migraines and cluster headaches.
- For more than 130 years, Chiropractors all over the world have helped millions of people manage head and neck pain issues. Different types of headaches and migraines can be associated with issues in the spine that can often be dealt with using a wide range of chiropractic approaches.
