By Donna Stark

You may know a lot of people that keep a bottle of headache medicine in their purse or desk but that doesn't mean you should ever consider headaches a normal part of life. They're not.

Headaches can be caused by stress, trauma, poor diet, and bad posture, or they can be caused by a combination of things. If you are a constant sufferer of head pain and can't figure out what the underlying source of your discomfort is, come on in to see your local chiropractors at The Joint Chiropractic. They may be able to help!

Tips to Reduce Head Pain

The chiropractors at The Joint Chiropractic have tons of experience treating headaches and migraines, and are more than excited to help correct any potential issues that are keeping you from enjoying pain-free days! Take a look at how routine chiropractic care can decrease the intensity and frequency of your pain and at how you can ease the pain at home with some easy-to-follow tips.

• Chiropractic care - Regular chiropractic adjustments place the body in proper alignment which can help ease muscle tension, strain, and stress in the upper back and neck. They will also restore optimal function to the nervous system and promote the production of the body's feel-good chemicals which can help stabilize and alleviate pain. You can look forward to a reduction in need of those pain relievers because chiropractic care always addresses the root cause of the problem. By targeting the underlying issue, the adjustments allow your body to begin the self-healing process immediately.
• Tips for home - In addition to chiropractic care, there are several things you can do at home that may help with the management of your headaches. To start, make sure you are drinking the recommended amount of water every day and sleeping the recommended number of hours every night. Eat regular, healthy meals and pay attention to any foods that may trigger your headaches. It is also helpful to learn effective stress management techniques and to watch your posture at work, home, and play!
