HOW CAN CHIROPRACTIC HELP?
Chiropractic care can effectively eliminate headaches and reduce the pressure on very sensitive nerves in the cervical spine. Chiropractors also teach their patients to avoid making things worse by using drugs – even over-the-counter, nonprescription drugs – because they can have serious side effects and dangerous interactions with othermedications or supplements you take.
According to Dr. Shoshany, "Many times patients will try every drug on the market before seeking chiropractic care. They come to my office in desperation, find relief for their headaches, andwish that they where informed sooner of the benefits of Chiropractic Care."
Spinal injuries are major causes of headaches, and chiropractors normally perform spinal manipulations (aka chiropractic adjustments) on headache sufferers.
By simply taking the pressure off of irritated nerves and/or relaxing the muscles attached to the skull, the intensity and recurrence rate of headaches and migraines can be drastically improved.
Chiropractors also routinely provide their patients with proper nutritional advice, which can include a diet change, the elimination of headache triggering foods, and the addition of necessary vitamins. They also teach the importance of proper posture, ergonomics, exercises and relaxation techniques, which can all help reduce the recurrence of headaches.
