Headaches & Neck Pain

Headache & Neck Pain Relief at Schroeder Family Chiropractic

Headache Treatment & Chiropractic Care

Headaches are one of the most common ailments people experience, ranging from mild discomfort to debilitating pain. Whether occasional or chronic, headaches can interfere with daily life, often leading to nausea, light sensitivity, and persistent throbbing pain.

There are many causes of headaches, including hormonal imbalances, environmental triggers, allergies, and sinus issues, but one of the most overlooked causes is musculoskeletal tension. The most frequent type of headache treated by chiropractors is a tension headache, which occurs due to instability in the neck, leading to muscle tightness and nerve irritation.

How Chiropractic Care Helps with Headaches

One of the leading contributors to tension headaches is prolonged poor posture, especially from long hours spent at a desk, in front of a computer, or looking down at a phone. These modern habits can create spinal misalignments, muscle strain, and nerve compression, leading to frequent headaches. Chiropractic adjustments work to:

• Restore proper spinal alignment to relieve pressure on nerves
• Reduce muscle tension in the neck, shoulders, and upper back
• Improve posture through ergonomic counseling and corrective exercises
• Enhance circulation to promote natural healing and decrease inflammation

By addressing the root cause of tension headaches, chiropractic care provides a natural, drug-free approach to long-term relief.

Neck Pain Treatment & Spinal Rehabilitation

Neck pain and upper back pain can result from sudden injuries, such as whiplash, herniated discs, or slip-and-fall accidents, or they may develop gradually due to poor posture and repetitive movements. Whether the cause is acute or chronic, misalignments in the spine can lead to persistent discomfort and mobility issues.

Common Causes of Neck Pain:

• Poor posture & prolonged screen time (text neck, desk work)
• Repetitive motion injuries (frequent phone use, excessive typing)
• Auto accidents & whiplash
• Herniated or bulging discs
• Sleeping in an improper position

How Chiropractic Adjustments Help Relieve Neck Pain

Chiropractic treatments provide a non-invasive, effective solution for relieving neck pain by:

• Correcting spinal misalignments to improve mobility
• Reducing inflammation and nerve compression
• Relieving muscle tension in the neck, shoulders, and upper back
• Providing postural and ergonomic recommendations to prevent re-injury

For patients dealing with chronic or severe neck pain, spinal rehabilitation programs, including chiropractic adjustments, therapeutic exercises, and ergonomic counseling, can help restore strength and stability to the spine.
