Chiropractic Care for Headaches and Migraines

Content reviewed by Dr. Joseph D. Sas, DC

Unfortunately, the majority of people will suffer a headache of some kind at some point in life. The two most common headache types are tension headaches and migraines. Some of these headaches can be so excruciating that they prevent people from getting out of bed or engaging in normal activities for days at a time.

Many people seek out pharmaceutical treatments for headaches, but most of these come with side effects that nobody wants. Fortunately, regulating the nervous system through chiropractic care is an effective, drug-free headache and migraine treatment that works. If you suffer headaches and migraines in St. Louis, you owe it to yourself to book an appointment here at Gateway Chiropractic and get the head pain relief you need to live a full, active life again.

Common Migraine and Headache Causes

Each of our patients has a unique story about how they came to suffer headaches or migraines. Usually, these stories, though very personal to each person, fall into one (or more) of the following categories of headache causes. Regardless of why you suffer headaches or migraines, it is important to get a complete and accurate diagnosis so that your St. Louis chiropractor can provide the right headache treatment options to finally bring you lasting pain relief.

Traumatic head and neck injuries, like suffering whiplash in a car accident, often result in headaches or migraines. Because whiplash often yields delayed symptoms, it is important to get checked by your chiropractor immediately after any type of head or neck injury so that the symptoms can be reduced and headaches can heal faster.

So many people these days spend hours with their head craned down, neck bent forward, looking at their phones or computers. But this is not the only problem. Slouching, tilting your head to one side frequently, or even sleeping on an unsupportive pillow or in certain sleeping positions can cause long-term posture problems in the neck that frequently lead to headaches and migraines.

Many people carry stress physically in their neck and shoulders. This tightens the muscles and other neck soft tissues and restricts circulation and pinches nerves in the process. Stress can also cause poor posture and inattentiveness injuries! You can see how it all connects. All of these irritants can worsen both tension headaches and migraines.

Connected to both stress and often a poor pillow, lack of sleep is a particular trigger for many migraine sufferers, not to mention everyone else who has headaches. Our headache chiropractors can help you evaluate your sleep situation and improve it to resolve this trigger, which can help solve a host of other health problems too.

Both tension headaches and migraines can become worse with poor nutrition habits. Migraine sufferers particularly know that eating certain foods with certain chemicals may trigger a migraine. Correcting poor nutritional patterns and making delicious, yet healthy, choices can do a world of good for headaches and a host of other health concerns. Our headache and migraine chiropractors often recommend patients track their food intake in an app so they can see what their individual food-headache triggers might be.
