Headaches & Migraine

There is no such thing as 'just a normal headache'

Chronic headaches and migraines interfere with work, social life, and exercise. Pain is a sign that something is not right — addressing the cause, not just the pain, is what produces lasting results. Chiropractic care targets the spinal and muscular contributors that are often overlooked.

  • Throbbing or pressure headache
  • One-sided head or face pain
  • Pain behind one eye
  • Nausea or vertigo with headache
  • Headache triggered by neck movement
  • Visual disturbances (migraine aura)
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Cervical joint dysfunction
  • Muscle tension in neck & shoulders
  • Poor posture at work or on devices
  • Stress & fatigue
  • Food or hormonal triggers
  • Sleep disruption
  • Types of Headache We Treat

    Tension-type headaches are felt around the scalp and are very common. Cervicogenic headaches originate from neck dysfunction — they typically appear on one side of the head or behind one eye with no visual disturbances. Migraines involve throbbing pain, often with vision changes and nausea. Multiple types can co-exist in the same patient.

  • How Chiropractic Helps

    Chiropractic care aims to correct spinal mobility/alignment, eliminate body tension, improve nerve function and joint mechanics, and reduce the frequency and severity of headache episodes. Lifestyle advice on exercise, posture, and diet may also be provided as part of a holistic approach.

When to Seek Help

  • Headaches occurring more than once a week
