Headaches can make it hard to focus, work, or enjoy daily life. They often come from tension in the neck and shoulders, poor posture, stress, or problems with how the spine and muscles function. When the neck or upper back is not properly aligned, it can place pressure on nearby nerves and muscles, leading to pain that travels to the head. Some headaches cause dull, steady aching, while others bring sharp or throbbing pain, sometimes with light or sound sensitivity. A chiropractor can help by improving spinal alignment and reducing tension that may be affecting the nerves and muscles connected to the head and neck. This can support better movement, circulation, and nerve function, which may help decrease headache frequency and intensity. If headaches are interfering with your day-to-day life, it is suggested that you schedule a visit with a chiropractor. 

Headaches are a widespread issue, often caused by stress, poor posture, or tension in the neck and shoulders. They can range from dull, persistent discomfort to sharp, debilitating pain, interfering with daily activities and reducing quality of life. Muscle tension and joint misalignments in the cervical spine are frequent contributors to headaches, particularly tension and neck-related headaches. Ignoring these issues can result in recurring or worsening symptoms.
Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive, drug-free solution for headache relief. Chiropractors assess spinal alignment and posture to identify factors contributing to the pain. Treatment may include precise spinal adjustments to reduce pressure on nerves, relax tight muscles, and improve mobility.
1. Are headaches ever caused by issues in the lower spine?
While less common, misalignments in the lower spine can create compensatory issues throughout the body, including tension in the neck and shoulders, which may contribute to headaches.
2. How does chiropractic care address sinus headaches?
Chiropractors can perform gentle adjustments and soft tissue work around the neck and upper back to improve drainage and reduce sinus pressure, providing relief from sinus-related headaches.
