HEADACHES AND MIGRAINES
No one should have to endure headaches or migraines. In fact, Dr Preet, a Chiropractor and Osteopath in Victoria, can not only alleviate pain but also prevent it from happening again.
Ending Headaches for Good
Headaches and migraines can strike at any time and affect the majority of people at some point in their lives. The exact cause of them can vary, but it’s thought to be related to the nerves, joints, muscles, and blood vessels in and around the neck and head. Pain can be felt all over the head or in a specific area and can last for a few hours or even days. The most common causes are:
- Poor posture
- Injury (e.g., whiplash)
- Upper cervical (neck) issues
- Nerve irritation
- Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) issues
Headaches and migraines are common reasons to see a chiropractor and are usually much more correctable than people expect.
Treatment for Headaches and Migraines
Unfortunately, there is not always a cure for migraines or headaches, but research has shown that hands-on chiropractic care can be an effective treatment. Plus, it’s ideal for those who don’t want to rely on medication or painkillers.
In fact, by focusing on structures in the back, shoulder, head, and neck, we can effectively relax muscles, soothe tension, boost blood flow, and relieve stress.
What to Expect
We’ll begin the session by discussing your current pain, any other treatment you’ve tried, and what you’d like to get out of this treatment. We’ll need to know about the pattern of headaches, your symptoms, and various lifestyle factors.
A physical examination may also be required, from here, we can advise on a care plan that will be personalized for you.
