Care For Neck Pain, Headache, And Migraine

Check Out The Common Causes Of Neck Problems

Your neck is jam-packed with nerves, glands, tubes, blood and lymph vessels, and 48 different joints plus your brainstem, spinal cord, spinal column, muscles, tendons, fluids, meninges, and more. It also balances your heavy head! Neck problems can be caused by poor posture, repetitive habits, and trauma. Neck dysfunction or neck trauma can cause headaches, numbness, coldness, or "pins and needles" in the face, chest, arms, wrists, or hands. These can also result in anxiety, insomnia, neck and lower back pain, ear ringing, dizziness, hearing loss, eye pain, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, and other symptoms.

Chiropractic And Whiplash

Whiplash occurs when the head and neck are thrown or "snapped" back and forth very quickly. Whiplash is seen in auto accidents, falls, and in "collision" sports such as football and boxing. In addition to the disc and other soft tissue damage, whiplash causes spinal column misalignment and irritation, stretching, or impingement to the nerves and spinal cord. 

About 20 million people in the United States have suffered whiplash damage. Of course, in an accident, the first order of business is to attend to any life-threatening problems such as fractures, hemorrhage, shock, and a severe concussion. After that, the spine must also be attended to. Chiropractic has been a blessing to millions of people suffering from neck and whiplash problems, saving many sufferers from unnecessary drugs and surgery.

Headaches And Migraines

Sooner or later nearly everyone gets a headache, but for about 20% of us, they are chronic and recurrent.

What Puts The "Ache" In Headache?
Surprisingly, a headache is not a "brain ache." The brain, most of its membranes and the skull feel no pain at all. That is why during brain surgery patients can be wide awake, even talking to the doctors while their brains are being probed or tampered with (local anesthetic is used to numb the scalp). The pain-sensitive parts are the arteries of the brain and the skull, and the dura matter which covers the brain and the cranial nerves. When these structures are infected, pulled, inflamed, stretched, compressed, or irritated, it results in a headache.

Chiropractic And Headaches
Although chiropractic is not a headache therapy, for over a hundred years headache sufferers have benefited from the drug-free, natural methods used by their neighborhood chiropractors. By eliminating spinal subluxations, chiropractic permits the entire body to restore itself to a greater level of health and wholeness. In effect, to heal itself. Therefore, chiropractic care is essential for anyone who suffers from headaches. Rely on the experienced chiropractor at Carpenter Chiropractic Clinic to prevent and treat headaches.
