What Is Causing Your Headache?
Headaches are fairly common. They often come and go without any incident, so we don’t pay them too much attention. Unfortunately, some headaches can be unpleasant, intense, and persistent.
Cervicogenic headaches are among those conditions. These headaches are commonly associated with misalignments along the cervical spine. It may take a while for cervicogenic headaches to make their presence felt, but they do not go away quickly once that happens.
You can tell if you have this headache by how the pain resonates. The pain may radiate from only one side of your face and remain consistent.
Next up, we have tension headaches. Tension headaches are also byproducts of issues with your musculoskeletal system, but they are more closely related to the muscles. More specifically, they are caused by muscle tightness.
The discomfort you’re currently dealing with may also have something to do with a lingering injury. A neck strain you sustained from a rear-end car accident may be responsible for your headaches. Your headaches will persist until that underlying injury is addressed.
Because headaches can be related to various conditions and injuries, it’s critical to understand what’s causing them first. Thankfully, an experienced chiropractor is more than capable of providing that diagnosis.

What Treatment Methods Can Chiropractors Use on Headaches?
Chiropractors can utilize different treatment methods to address which underlying issue is responsible for your headaches.
A chiropractor’s expertise is particularly helpful for treating cervicogenic headaches. Cervicogenic headaches respond best to spinal adjustments and physical therapy. Those happen to be two treatment methods that chiropractors know incredibly well. Count on them to alleviate the issue causing your cervicogenic headaches.
Tension headaches can also be treated using physical therapy. Therapeutic massage and gentle stretches are also known to help with tension headaches because they promote relaxation. The aforementioned techniques can ease the pent-up tension in your body and cause the headaches to dissipate.
Migraines related to neck strains can also be addressed by chiropractors. They can find the misalignments along your cervical spine and administer the adjustments needed to remove them. Both your headaches and neck pain should be reduced following treatment.
