How Hill Family Chiropractic Eliminates Headaches | Chiropractor for Headaches in Branson, MO
Hi, I’m Dr. Hill, owner and CEO of Hill Family Chiropractic. Today, we’re addressing a critical topic that affects many: headaches. These can significantly impact emotional and relational health and are a major cause of disability. According to the World Health Organization, headaches represent one of the most common nervous system disorders globally, with an estimated 40% of the world’s population affected by various types, including migraines, cluster headaches, hormonal headaches, and tension headaches.
Identifying the Causes of Headaches
At Hill Family Chiropractic, our primary goal is to identify the root cause of these headaches. Through our experience, we have pinpointed three key areas to assess:
- Postural or Structural Problems: We utilize state-of-the-art digitizing technology to analyze posture and determine if it may be contributing to conditions like tension headaches. For instance, a forward head posture or a shift in the neck and shoulders can create muscle tension that impacts nerves controlling the head and neck.
- Structural, Neurological, or Functional Issues: Factors such as previous car accidents, ligament damage, repetitive movements, or even long-standing conditions from childhood can affect the spine, ligaments, and nerves, potentially leading to headaches. A thorough chiropractic examination helps us assess the tension and tone of the muscles and the structure of the spine alongside posture.
- Biochemical Imbalances: From nutritional deficiencies and toxin overload to hormonal imbalances like altered cortisol levels due to stress, biochemical factors play a significant role. We delve deep, possibly using tests like saliva or blood analyses, to identify these imbalances and their contributions to headache symptoms.
Tailored Treatment Plans for Headache Relief
Once we’ve identified the underlying causes, we develop a personalized plan aimed at restoring proper function, balance, and structure to your body. This holistic approach allows the body to better manage daily life and stress, ultimately helping to alleviate headaches.
