Chiropractic Care and Headaches: A Natural Path to Relief

Headaches are a common condition that can impact daily life. Whether it’s a tension headache, migraine, or cluster headache. Although many people use medication for relief, chiropractic care can provide a natural, non-invasive and effective solution for headaches.

Over 40% of the UK’s population suffer from headaches. Common triggers for headaches can include:

Stress

Poor posture

Muscle tension

Chiropractic care focuses on the spine and the surrounding muscles. We use gentle adjustments, soft tissue work and home exercises to help relieve any nerve irritation, discomfort and tension.

Types of Headaches Treated

1. Tension Headaches: Tension headaches are the most common and often associated with stress and poor posture.  

2. Cluster Headaches: These intense, recurring headaches occur in cycles. Cluster headaches normally affect one side of the head.  

3. Migraines: Migraines are intense, throbbing headaches, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, or sensitivity to light and sound.  Chiropractic care can not cure migraine headaches but can help relieve symptoms.

We hope this provides you with some information on how chiropractic care can help with headaches.
