Americans live with pain every day. One of the most common types of pain that adults complain of is the headache. Whether it’s from tension, the stress of our everyday lives, or a dozen other factors, headaches have become a common occurrence. According to numbers from the World Health Organization, half to three-quarters of all adults 18-65 years old worldwide have suffered from a headache at least once within the last year. Many people turn to over-the-counter pain-relieving drugs to find relief, but what if there was a more holistic approach to pain management for headaches?

The full-service team at AllCare Health & Pain uses an effective, holistic approach to pain management. While a headache may seem like an occasional nuisance, it can diminish your productivity and prevent you from enjoying your family, your friends, even your life. If you’ve tried everything or are simply looking for a new way to deal with your pain, consider the headache relieving benefits of chiropractic care. Let the experts at AllCare Health & Pain show you a better way.

Chiropractic Care for Tension Headaches

One of the leading causes of headaches is tension, not just emotional tension or stress, but the physical tension that these emotions can induce. When we are stressed or anxious, many of us carry those worries in our body physically. Our posture changes, we may clench our jaw, or we tighten up the muscles in our shoulders, neck, and back. The tension in our mood can directly contribute to the tension in our bodies. This tension can increase irritation in our joints, pull our bodies out of alignment, and strain our muscles, all of which can contribute to headaches.

So how can a chiropractor help? Chiropractic care can help relieve the pain associated with this tension. Some spinal manipulation and chiropractic adjustments may help improve spinal function. It may also help alleviate some of the tension in the surrounding muscles and ease the irritation in the joints. A chiropractor may also be able to suggest ways to improve your posture and ergonomics, leading to less stress being placed on your body.

Other Headache Related Factors

Headaches are triggered by several different factors from certain foods, environmental stimuli, and changes in our routine or behaviors like not getting enough sleep or over-exhorting ourselves. How does chiropractic care help with these headache triggers? Putting yourself in the care of a chiropractor is a form of self-care. You are giving yourself permission to relax in a safe environment and letting a professional address your needs and concerns. Not only are they addressing your body’s physical needs in response to pain, but they are also easing your mental tension and stress.

There is something powerful about the human mind. Treating the body as well as the mind is the best way to find lasting relief from what ails us. Chiropractic care, in addition to other holistic approaches, can help both the mind and the body heal itself.
