Because headaches are so common, some people think that a headache is just a normal part of life! This is not true. A headache is a sign that something's wrong. Misalignments of spinal bones, stress, toxic fumes, certain foods, preservatives, and alcohol are common culprits.
Headaches are not the result of an aspirin shortage in your body! Drugs only cover up the symptoms and do not address the cause of headache pain.
A frequent and overlooked cause of headaches is the misalignment of spinal bones in the neck and upper back.
When bones of the spine lose their normal position or motion, sensitive nerves and blood vessels to the head can be affected. When spinal nerves and related tissues are stretches or irritated, they can produce throbbing headaches.
If a thorough examination reveals reduced range of motion, loss of normal spinal curves, or mechanical restrictions, chiropractic care should be considered to treat a headache.
