Get Adjusted, not Medicated. Research shows that spinal manipulation may be an effective treatment option for tension headaches and headaches that originate in the neck.[/fusion_text][fusion_separator style_type=”none” top_margin=”10″ bottom_margin=”10″ /][fusion_text]
How do you deal with a pounding headache?
Take a pill and hope it goes away? Do you clench your teeth and bear it? There’s a better option: chiropractic adjustments.
In 2001, a study at Duke University Evidence-Based Practice Center found:
Spinal manipulation resulted in almost immediate improvement for those headaches that originate in the neck, and had significantly fewer side effects and longer-lasting relief of tension-type headache than a commonly prescribed medication.
In 1995, study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics found:
Spinal manipulative therapy is an effective treatment for tension headaches and that those who ceased chiropractic treatment after four weeks experienced a sustained therapeutic benefit in contrast with those patients who received a commonly prescribed medication.

| Manipulation Under Anesthesia Patients that suffer from cervicogenic headaches who have tried conservative chiropractic care should consider manipulation under anesthesia (MUA). The MUA procedure has helped resolve my patient’s headaches 90% of the time on average. |

What Triggers Headaches? |
Physical problems cause 5% of cases: • foods • environmental stimuli (noises, lights, stress, etc.) • behaviors (insomnia, excessive exercise, blood sugar changes, etc.) The headache itself is the primary concern in 95% of cases: Most of these are associated with muscle tension in the neck. |

Tips to Prevent Headaches |
• Take a break and stretch every 30 minutes to one hour. • Engage in low-impact exercise. • Avoid teeth clenching. • Drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day. |
