Migraines and headaches can be debilitating, affecting your ability to work, focus, and enjoy life. While over-the-counter medications may offer temporary relief, they don’t address the root causes of your pain. Chiropractic care is a natural, drug-free solution that can help alleviate headaches and migraines by targeting their underlying sources. At Ascend Chiropractic in Lincoln, NE, our expert team has helped countless patients find lasting relief. Here’s how we can help you.
How Chiropractic Care Addresses Headaches and Migraines
-
Spinal Alignment and Tension Relief
Misalignments in the cervical spine (neck) can irritate nerves and contribute to headaches. Chiropractic adjustments restore proper alignment, reducing tension and improving nerve function. -
Reducing Muscle Tension
Chronic tension in the neck and shoulders is a common trigger for tension headaches. Techniques like Active Release Technique (ART) and Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) can release tight muscles and improve blood flow to the affected areas. -
Improved Blood Flow
Restricted blood flow to the brain is often linked to migraines. Chiropractic care helps improve circulation, reducing the frequency and severity of migraine episodes. -
Targeting Trigger Points
Specific trigger points in the neck and shoulders may contribute to referred pain in the head. By addressing these areas, chiropractic care can break the cycle of chronic headaches.
Common Types of Headaches Treated with Chiropractic Care
-
Tension Headaches: Often caused by stress or poor posture, these headaches feel like a band of pressure around your head.
-
Migraines: Severe, throbbing pain often accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light, and aura.
-
Cervicogenic Headaches: Originating from issues in the neck, these headaches are commonly linked to poor spinal alignment.
