Chiropractic Care for Headaches and Migraines

There are many ways to treat both headaches and migraines. The treatments can range from laying down in a dark room, placing something hot or cold on your head, rubbing or massaging your head, neck or shoulders, or taking pain medication. At Powell Chiropractic Center, we want to help prevent headaches and migraines in the first place.

What Are the Symptoms of Headaches and Migraines?

You may experience pain, throbbing, pounding, or pulsing across your forehead or in one particular spot on your head. You may see an aura or halo around things. It may be hard to look at a computer screen, your cell phone, to read or to be around bright light. You may feel nauseous or even throw up. Some people even get hot and sweaty when they have a headache or migraine.

A Chiropractor Can Help With Headaches and Migraines

If you are experiencing frequent headaches or migraines, it is important to try to pinpoint the cause. For some people, a lack of sleep or certain foods can trigger migraines. In other people, straining to see can cause headaches and migraines. If your spine is not in proper alignment, it may cause headaches or migraines. A chiropractor can provide chiropractic adjustments to help align your spine. This can help to reduce the symptoms of headaches and migraines, their frequency, or eliminate them completely, depending on the source of your headache or migraine.

Chiropractic Adjustments & Headaches Relief

If you are experiencing headaches or migraines due to your spine being out of alignment, you should seek chiropractic treatment as soon as possible. Some people may need treatment every few weeks, while other people may be able to go a few months between adjustments. Working at an ergonomic workstation and doing exercises to help strengthen your core can help reduce the frequency in which you need chiropractic adjustments for spinal alignment.
