HEadaches and Migraines

At HAVEN Chiropractic Posture & Scoliosis, our Chiropractor Asheville specialize in addressing the root causes of headaches and migraines through Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP). Many people experience chronic headaches or migraines that interfere with their daily lives, and often the underlying cause can be linked to spinal misalignment or poor posture. Our goal is to provide long-lasting relief by treating these issues at their source, rather than just addressing the symptoms.

Common Causes of Headaches and Migraines

Headaches and migraines can often be triggered by spinal misalignment and poor posture. When the neck is out of alignment, it places stress on muscles, joints, and nerves, leading to tension and pain, which can result in headaches, tension headaches, or migraines.

• Spinal Misalignment: Misalignment in the neck and upper back can cause tension and nerve compression, leading to tension headaches or migraines.
• Poor Posture: Forward head posture or hunching over can place additional strain on the neck and upper back, contributing to headaches.
• Tech Neck: Frequent use of phones and computers can lead to poor neck posture, causing muscle tension and discomfort that triggers headaches.
• Muscle Tension: Tight muscles in the shoulders, neck, and back can contribute to tension headaches, often caused by poor posture or spinal misalignment.
• Stress: High levels of stress can lead to muscle tension and other physical symptoms, which may trigger or exacerbate headaches.

Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) for Headaches and Migraines

At HAVEN Chiropractic Posture & Scoliosis, we focus on providing comprehensive, personalized care that not only relieves the pain of headaches and migraines but also addresses the root causes. Here’s how we approach headache and migraine treatment:

• Spinal Alignment Evaluation: We begin with a thorough assessment of your spine and posture to identify any misalignments or areas of concern that may be contributing to your headaches or migraines. This includes advanced imaging and diagnostics to get a clear picture of your spinal health.
• Chiropractic Adjustments: Our expert chiropractic adjustments help to realign the spine, particularly in the neck and upper back, which can relieve nerve pressure and improve blood flow. These adjustments can provide immediate relief from tension and help prevent future headaches.
• Postural Correction: Using Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP), we focus on correcting posture-related issues that contribute to headaches. By improving posture and spinal alignment, we reduce the strain on muscles and nerves, which can help prevent headaches from recurring.
• Muscle Relaxation Techniques: We incorporate therapies designed to relax tense muscles, particularly in the neck and shoulders, which can be a significant source of tension headaches. This may include stretching exercises, massage therapy, or traction techniques.
• Lifestyle and Ergonomic Advice: We provide guidance on how to reduce headache triggers in your daily life. This may include ergonomic adjustments to your workstation, advice on stress management techniques, and tips for maintaining proper posture during everyday activities.
