One solution that could give you relief is chiropractic adjustments. Explore chiropractic treatments for your headaches with Dr. David Zumstein at Zumstein Chiropractic Clinic in Franklin, WI.

Common Causes of Headaches

Headaches are common in all patients, but there are cases when they can be debilitating, preventing you from participating in normal activities. Here are some common causes of headaches:

  • Migraines (throbbing and pulsing sensation in one area of the head).
  • Head injuries.
  • Dental conditions (such as TMJ).
  • Muscular tension.
  • Tumors.
  • Side effects of taking some medications.
  • Nutritional deficiencies.
  • Stress and anxiety.

How Can Chiropractic Adjustments Help?

A chiropractic adjustment is a manipulation of the bones and tissues to relieve pressure in targeted areas of the body. A chiropractic adjustment can provide headache relief by targeting the spine and neck. Your Franklin, WI, chiropractor must first diagnose the headaches you’re experiencing. The main types include tension, migraine, or cervicogenic (usually sourcing from the neck).

Your Chiropractic Appointment

After you spend some time discussing your headache symptoms and their possible causes with your chiropractor, you can proceed with the adjustment procedure in the office. You will be asked to lay comfortably on a table either on your back or your side. The doctor will then apply force using the hands to joints along the spinal column. Though you may hear a cracking or popping sound, patients normally have a comfortable and pain-free experience.

Lasting Headache Relief Is a Call Away

Headaches can be a pain in more ways than one, especially if you have a very active lifestyle and a demanding work schedule. You can finally be free from the constant discomfort and distraction of headaches when you visit Zumstein Chiropractic Clinic in Franklin, WI, for chiropractic adjustments.
