Chiropractic Headache Treatment Methods
Our treatments at ChiroFitness Centers are designed to unlock your body’s natural ability to heal itself. We can use chiropractic adjustments to address spinal imbalances, neck or back injuries, poor posture, stress, tension, and other underlying headache triggers. During a chiropractic adjustment, we will gently change the position and force of your spine to relieve pressure and pain, restore blood flow, reduce tension of muscles and soft tissues, alleviate pressure in the sinuses, and restore balance throughout the spine. We can also treat the underlying causes of headaches and migraines and relieve pain and other symptoms through spinal decompression, laser therapy, trigger point therapy, and shockwave therapy.
