Chiropractic treatment for migraines works in multiple ways. Specific adjustments to the upper neck and skull decrease irritation in the nerves that send pain signals to the brain. It also decreases muscle tension in the neck, a common trigger of tension headaches. Adjustments restore proper nervous system communication and improve blood flow to the brain, helping to relieve chronic migraines and headaches.
NECK PAIN
Chiropractic adjustments loosen up the joints of the cervical vertebrae in the neck. This reduces pain caused by pinched nerves, muscle spasms, and strains. Technology is impacting our neck health as we spend more time hunched over or on screens. This can change the normal shape of our neck curve, leading to chronic stiffness and pain. Adjustments to the neck help minimize the impact of technology on our spines!
LOW BACK PAIN
Chiropractic adjustments remove joint restrictions and misalignments of the lumbar spine in the lower back. This removes irritation to the muscles, nerves, and discs in the lumbar spine, improving your range of motion and reducing pain.
HIPS + SCIATICA
Your pelvis should be level, it is the foundation of your spine. Imbalances in your pelvis impact everything above and below - joints, muscles, and especially the sciatic nerve. It even affects your knees! Pelvic unleveling is a structural problem, and chiropractic adjustments specialize in balancing your pelvis and sacrum, reducing hip pain and sciatica!
TMJ / TMD
Adjustments from a chiropractor can resolve TMJ pain stemming from poor jaw alignment, stress, grinding teeth, or injury to the face or jaw. This can also help relieve clicking and popping of the jaw, along with tension in the neck and shoulders.
