The Real Cause of Chronic Headaches

Recurring headaches may not be “all in your head”—they often start in your neck. Poor posture, spinal misalignment, and tight muscles in the upper cervical spine can refer pain into the head, leading to what’s known as tension-type or cervicogenic headaches.

Unlike migraines, these headaches tend to cause dull, aching pressure and are often made worse by long periods at a desk or after a stressful day. Chiropractic care targets the underlying causes, relieving tension in the muscles and correcting the alignment of the cervical spine.

Patients who receive regular chiropractic adjustments often report fewer headache days, reduced intensity, and less reliance on medication.
