Headaches
Most headaches start in the neck — not the head.
Did you know?Roughly half of all adults experience a headache disorder in any given year.
What it is
Many headaches originate from dysfunction within the neck and upper cervical spine. Chiropractic adjustments may help improve spinal motion and reduce joint restriction.
Common Symptoms
- Tightness or pressure around the head
- Pain at the base of the skull or temples
- Pain that worsens with stress or screen time
- Stiffness in the neck and shoulders
- Headaches that come on at a predictable time of day
How Chiropractic Can Help
- Specific upper-cervical adjustments restore proper motion
- Reduces muscle tension across the neck, jaw, and upper back
- Addresses postural drivers — desk posture, phone neck, sleep position
- Calms the nervous system through restored spinal function
