When the bones in the spine lose their normal alignment they put pressure on delicate nerve fibers. This pressure irritates the nerve tissue and this along can trigger a headache. Spinal misalignments also cause muscles to become tight and tender starting a chain reaction of physical stresses that end up as a headache. Stiff muscles, restricted range of motion and pain are very common findings during chiropractic evaluation of the patient. Dr. Mark Glynn, chiropractor at The Pain to Health Center always recommends a complete chiropractic evaluation for anyone who suffers with headaches. According to Dr. Glynn a major challenge is that many people who suffer with headaches think they are normal. He explains that although headaches have become common they are not normal. Chiropractic care and does help those who choose to utilize it.

Chiropractic care for headaches starts with the consultation. Chiropractor and patient sit down and discuss the headache problem and the history associated with it. A chiropractic exam is performed and a proper diagnosis is reached. After that a treatment plan for the headaches is discussed and a patient can get started with care. Headaches typically respond to chiropractic care very quickly. Intensity and frequency of the headaches reduce rapidly in most cases. Patients continue care to a point at which the spine is returned to normal. At that time each individual headache patient decides if they want to continue supportive care or simply return if and when the need arises.
