Pasco County Migraine Sufferers Find Relief Through Chiropractic Care

By Katy Parfait


Headaches are some of the most common maladies mankind suffers with, in the Twenty First Century. The pain can sometimes be a minor inconvenience or may be severe and keep you from enjoying even the simplest of things in life. With the help of Pasco County chiropractic care, your headache problems may fade away and become only memories.

Many headaches have their origins in the neck and the upper or cervical spine. For example, your head should turn easily from left to right without any hesitation or problems. If not, something is hindering movement and this is a sign there is a problem in the neck. When the head cannot turn smoothly it can place pressure on muscles and tendons and this can result in overworked muscles which can spasm with pain.

When you overwork your neck and shoulder muscles they may feel achy and tired. This can also make it hard on the spine and can throw the spine out of alignment. If this occurs, nerves in the neck may be affected and can cause not only pain, but dizziness, nausea, and you might have visual disturbances.

When you have a headache, you are interested in stopping the pain so you can function. One of the simplest ways to stop pain is to use common pain medications like aspirin or naproxen. These pills can sometimes stop a headache but in time the head pain almost always returns.

On your initial chiropractor visit, you are examined to see why you are having headaches. The doctor may check your neck and take motion x--rays. In addition, to see if there is nerve impingement you may have testing called electromyography. These tests can be very revealing.

Your Pasco County chiropractor provides safe and natural therapy to help your pain. It is directed at the cause of pain so once it is relieved, the pain is not likely to return. Gentle chiropractic adjustment, along with other methods help restore the spine to its natural state, and allows the body to heal.
