What causes headaches?

Headaches occur for a reason.

 A headache is your body's way of signaling you that something is not right.

 

The Doctors at Barton Chiropractic recognize that a headache is the body's warning alarm. Often that pain may be attributed to muscle tension and irritation of the nerves and blood vessels in the neck.

You have seven cervical vertebrae (spinal bones) in your neck. These vertebrae can become misaligned from excessive physical and emotional stress. This misalignment can irritate the nerve roots in the neck and may even cause minor constriction in some vessels which supply blood to the brain. When this happens, a headache can strike. once, twice, and again and again. If not cared for, more serious symptoms may develop.

 

What can the Doctor of Chiropractic do to help?

 

At Barton Chiropractic, our only concern is detecting and correcting Subluxations, ( pinched nerves caused by spinal misalignments) . Research has shown that it is these misaligned vertebrae that often cause headaches.

 

How can I get rid of my headaches?

 

I don't know. Seriously, I don't know. There are many causes for headaches. If your headaches are caused by misalignments, you can take drugs to cover them up. But we both know that that wont work forever. Or you can find a Chiropractor that specializes in structural correction , such as the doctors at Barton Chiropractic.
