Headache Causes
There are hundreds of causes of headaches, so it can be difficult to know just what is causing yours. However, some of these causes involve improper spinal alignment and gait. These two factors can have a lot to do with how you feel and whether you have pain in various places around your body, including headaches. Spinal manipulation may be needed if your spine is out of alignment. When it is, your posture or your lifestyle may be what is causing your frequent headaches.
It's common to sit for long periods, but if you are sitting incorrectly, you may cause a misalignment in your back. If your headache begins in your neck, your poor posture could be what is causing it. The way you walk can be another issue that leads to pain. Our chiropractor will show you how to walk properly so you can maintain better alignment.
Migraines and Chiropractic Care
Migraines are headaches on a whole other level. They can occur frequently and may come with debilitating pain. Different types of migraines can be caused by different conditions and triggers, but many are treatable with chiropractic care. Communication between your brain and your nervous system can become altered and disrupted, which can trigger a migraine. Chiropractic adjustments can realign your spine to enable that communication to go back to normal. Muscle tension is another issue that can trigger a migraine. A chiropractic alignment can help with muscle tension by reducing the strain on your musculoskeletal system.
