Headaches

Are you searching for headache relief in Warsaw, Missouri? It is a little-known fact that chiropractors can treat headaches by relieving pain and then providing advice and ongoing care to prevent headaches from recurring. Warsaw Chiropractic can help you.

Headache pain is common in nine out of 10 Americans in some form or another. Some patients have persistent or recurring headaches, and the pain can register anywhere on the scale from 1 to 10. Some patients experience debilitating pain accompanied by nausea while others have dull, throbbing sensations in one or more areas of the head.

Conservative treatments of a headache include lying down or taking Tylenol. More severe pain may warrant prescription pain medication. Chiropractic care is an effective and natural alternative to taking pain medications.

Chiropractic treatment typically includes spinal manipulation to lessen stress on the body and improve spinal function. Studies have shown that tension headaches respond very well to chiropractic adjustments. If the headache originates from the neck, pain relief can be immediate, and realignment of the spine has shown long-lasting effects in the prevention of new headaches. A full course of treatment for headaches may last approximately four weeks but offers fewer side effects than prescription medications.
