Help for Headaches in Bismarck
Discomfort on one side of the head. Throbbing pain. Feeling like a vice is around your head. These are all common symptoms of headaches, which can range in severity and intensity. While many people experience them occasionally, frequent headaches may indicate an underlying issue.
Dr. Mike specializes in addressing different types of headaches, such as migraines, tension headaches, and sinus headaches. Often, these headaches are linked to problems in the neck, known as cervicogenic headaches.
What Causes Headaches?
Many headaches stem from neck-related issues, where misalignment or tension in the cervical spine causes discomfort that radiates to the head. This type of headache can lead to tension around the neck, shoulders, and even the face, creating a painful, debilitating experience. Other contributing factors are poor posture, prolonged use of technology, and repetitive motions.
How Chiropractic Adjustments Can Help
If you’re tired of relying on OTC or prescription medication for your pain, chiropractic adjustments can provide natural and significant relief for headaches. How? By addressing the root cause in the neck and spine. Misalignments in the cervical spine can create tension, putting pressure on the nerves and muscles, which lead to headaches.
Long-Term Relief and Prevention
While you may get immediate relief after one chiropractic adjustment, consistent treatment is often necessary to ensure long-term results. Patients who experience chronic headaches due to poor posture or repetitive strain may benefit from ongoing care to prevent their symptoms from coming back. In addition to adjustments, we recommend lifestyle modifications such as improving posture and reducing screen time to minimize headaches.
Who Can Benefit from Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care can help people of all ages, from kids to older adults. Frequent headaches should not be considered a normal part of life, and if you experience headaches often, it’s important to seek chiropractic care to address the underlying issues.
