Discover The Real Secret To Finally Getting Rid Of Migraines and Other Headaches In Texarkana

Headaches are very common. An estimated 45 million Americans suffer from headaches, often on a daily basis.

These include many different types ranging from migraines to tension, cervicogenic, cluster, and many other diagnoses.

We’ll talk about how to get rid of migraines and other headaches in this blog post revealing some things that you have likely never previously heard.

Conventional treatments for these headaches is often not very effective leaving many people to suffer on an ongoing basis.

Medications help while people take them some to varying degrees. Surgery is often not a great solution either.

Neither of these options make any permanent change to the underlying factors that are generally causing migraines and other headaches.

We’ll discuss these underlying factors below so that you can better understand why most headaches occur and keep occurring.

Why Do You Get Headaches?

Every time you experience pain, even a headache, it means you have some underlying problem… some dysfunction that your body is telling you about with a painful signal.

The diagnosis doesn’t necessarily tell you why you are having headaches.

Headaches, including migraines and other types, are complex.

Often many factors are contributing to migraines and other headaches.

A loss of oxygen is often contributing to headache pain.

This isn’t generally caused by asthma or COPD. Very often it’s more subtle than a major breathing disorder.

The most over looked cause of this has to due with changes in posture that prevent full expansion of the ribs.

These postural changes are common in the neck, upper back, and shoulders.

The solution is to improve posture and rib expansion with Chiropractic and specific exercises so that headache sufferers can improve their oxygenation.

Changes in the autonomic nervous system contribute to increased pain and headaches.

This subconscious part of our nervous system controls fuel delivery (blood flow) and organ function.

It’s generally divided into the sympathetic ‘fight or flight‘ and the parasympathetic ‘rest and digest‘ portion.

Imbalances here can occur to a variety of different reasons.

We can evaluate these imbalances and change the dysfunction often in very simple ways.

Problems in the neck, particularly in the upper part of the neck, can compress or ‘pinch’ nerves and blood vessels causing headache and migraine pain. 

Evaluating and treating these problems is what Chiropractic is best known for and one of the reasons we have so much success treating migraines and other headaches.

Other musculoskeletal problems in the area also commonly cause headaches.

These problems include TMJ problems and musculoskeletal problems in other parts of the neck and upper back resulting in too much tension or muscle tightness / ‘spasms.’

Often another overlooked cause of migraines is from diet.

Often abnormal blood sugar patterns causing abnormal insulin and cortisol levels from this cause and contribute to headaches.

This can often be improved with some relatively simple changes in diet.

Another ‘hidden‘ problem is that many migraine and other headache sufferers are sensitive to certain foods that cause pain and inflammation in them.

These tend to be common foods and we can help headache sufferers remove them so they prevent the ongoing assault to their bodies.

The reason that so many people continue having migraines and headaches is that all of these factors were not evaluated and improved.

Every person is different and the treatment will vary depending on the individual.

In the majority of cases it takes a multi-pronged approach that will allow you to finally eliminate or significantly improve your headaches.

We focus on helping our patients improve these factors and over time, with treatment, people often get their lives back.
