If you regularly suffer from chronic headaches or migraines, you know just how disruptive they can be to daily life. When you’re in pain and cannot think clearly, it can be nearly impossible to work, keep up with your household, or enjoy life. Thankfully, regular chiropractic care at Light Touch Rehabilitation can help. Here’s what you need to know.
What Causes Chronic Headaches?
There are numerous reasons why you could suffer from chronic headaches or frequent migraines. Stress, diet, posture, sinus pressure, and more can all be triggers for this type of ailment. Many people with frequent migraines also cite food intolerances as a reason for their condition. Essentially, a headache is the body’s way of letting you know that something is wrong and it needs to be dealt with immediately.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help Reduce Pain
Chiropractic care is a commonly used, non-invasive method for reducing inflammation and pain often associated with chronic headaches and severe migraines. Why? When Dr. Lior Farkash, DC Boris Katz, PT performs an adjustment, it loosens up the tension in your body and throughout your neck. In turn, this reduces pain and discomfort all over, not just in your head.
If your condition is caused by stress, visiting your chiropractor on a regular basis can ensure you’re relaxed and have better posture, which can help reduce the duration and severity of regular headaches.
Furthermore, most chiropractors will evaluate your condition to see if another possible medical intervention is necessary. In some cases, they might suggest a visit to a massage therapist, physical therapist, or even your family doctor for further testing.
