MY ACHING HEAD!

 How can chiropractic and acupuncture help you if you suffer with headaches?

1. The nerves that emerge from the neck are prone to irritation and compression, especially in our modern work environment.This "pinching" is caused by misalignment or mechanical dysfunction of the spinal vertebrae which causes secondary muscle spasm which results in even more pain.

2. Gentle spinal adjustments decompress the affected nerves which allows the neck muscles to relax and break this visious cycle.

3. The jaw or TMJ is usually involved and often overlooked. TMJ therapy requires expertise to effectively treat. Keep in mind that just because the TMJ does not actually hurt does not mean that it's not a major factor in chronic headaches and neck pain. Acupuncture therapy is a valuable adjunct for TMJ malfunction. We use both needle and non-needle forms, the later uses wands and probes that emit comfortable micro-current into specific points around the jaw.

I f you are tired of the traditional medical approach to treating headaches then you should consider this natural and effective alternative.
