Can Upper Cervical Chiropractic Help Headaches?
Migraines, tension, cluster, and sinus headaches are some of the most common symptoms
people suffer from everyday but they dont realize that the cause may be due to an upper cervical spinal bone in the neck. Multiple muscles are attached to the vertebral spinal bones and this is what allows it to move, twist, and turn. When there is a vertebral spinal bone in the upper neck (usually the atlas or other words cervical 1) that is misaligned and causing consistent nerve pressure, muscles will tighten and pull on one or both sides of the neck and head causing excruciating pain to develop. Using multiple therapies or taking all different types of medications just may temporally relieve the pain but it does not take care of the main cause. A specific chiropractic adjustment in the upper cervical area unlocks the misaligned vertebral spinal bone, relieves pressure on the spinal cord and nerves, removes tension from the head and neck muscles and restores back balance to the body, relieving individuals from their headaches. But the primary objective of upper cervical chiropractic care is to remove true consistent nerve pressure and by doing that allows the nervous system to become healthy once again. Upper cervical chiropractic care requires no forceful, twisting or jerking motion of the neck. The adjustment is very specific and it is exceptionally safe. If you are suffering from any type of headaches or health ailment you might want to try upper cervical chiropractic care. It just may help.Can Upper Cervical Chiropractic Help Headaches?
