Tips for Headache Relief

A bad headache can derail a productive day of work, a fun family outing, or just plain relaxing on a Sunday afternoon. Frequent headaches have the power to disrupt your life to a significant degree—but so too do you have the power to reclaim your time. Chiropractic care and trigger point therapy are two types of headache relief we recommend because they’re safe, effective, and non-habit-forming

Why Try Chiropractic Care for Headache Relief

There are many different kinds of headaches, but two of the most common that people suffer from are tension headaches and migraines. Chiropractic care can help to directly address both, relieving symptoms and lessening the frequency with which they occur. It’s particularly effective at reducing tension headaches, which are typically caused by stress in the neck and shoulders that can be brought about by conditions like tech neck. By focusing on removing subluxations in the spine, promoting proper alignment, and removing tension from the muscles, regular chiropractic care can be an extremely useful form of headache relief. 

Why Try Trigger Point Therapy for Headache Relief

If you’ve ever rubbed your temples and gotten relief from headache pain, then you’re already partially familiar with the effectiveness of trigger point therapy. This form of massage therapy focuses on breaking tension out of trigger points in your myofascial tissues. Essentially, a trained massage therapist focuses on sensitive points in your muscles that hold tension and cause pain, releasing stress and promoting greater feelings of relaxation. Regular trigger point therapy can help keep you feeling relaxed and reduce the number and severity of headaches.
