How effective is chiropractic care for treating headaches and migraines?
Research shows that chiropractic care, including spinal manipulation, effectively improves both migraine and cervicogenic headaches. It can be as effective as conventional medications but without the side effects. Studies found that combining chiropractic adjustments with massage therapy can reduce migraine pain by almost 68%, addressing neck pain and muscle tension common in migraine sufferers.
What types of headaches can chiropractic treatment help with?
We treat tension headaches, migraines, cervicogenic headaches, cluster headaches, and stress-related headaches. These often involve spinal misalignments, muscle tension, or nerve irritation that our treatments address. Tension headaches from poor posture or stress respond well to chiropractic care, as do cervicogenic headaches originating from neck issues.
How long does it typically take to see results from chiropractic headache treatment?
Most patients notice improvement within 2-3 weeks of treatment, though this varies. Some feel relief after a few adjustments, while chronic conditions may take longer. One case showed complete resolution after 11 treatments over 9 weeks. Improvement builds over time as your body heals and adapts to proper alignment.
Is chiropractic treatment for headaches safe, and are there any side effects?
Chiropractic treatment is very safe when performed by a licensed professional like Dr. Heath. Unlike medications, chiropractic care is non-invasive and drug-free. Common side effects are mild, such as slight soreness, resolving within 24-48 hours. Many choose our approach for effective relief without medication side effects.
Do you accept insurance for headache and migraine treatment?
Most insurance plans cover chiropractic care, including headache and migraine treatment. We work with major providers and verify benefits before treatment. For those without coverage, we offer new patient specials to make care accessible. Our team will review your benefits and payment options to ensure affordability.
What makes your approach different from other headache treatments I've tried?
Unlike treatments focusing solely on symptom management, we identify the specific causes of your headaches. We create tailored plans combining chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, exercises, and lifestyle changes. Our comprehensive approach often reveals factors others miss, aiming for long-term relief and prevention. Dr. Heath’s 26 years of practice have helped thousands not just manage but eliminate headaches by addressing root causes.
