Not every headache is a chiropractic headache, but a meaningful percentage are. Cervicogenic headaches (originating from the neck) and tension headaches (driven by upper trap and suboccipital tightness) often resolve with care that addresses the underlying mechanics.
How we approach it
- Careful exam to rule out red flags and confirm cervicogenic pattern.
- Specific upper cervical and upper thoracic adjustments.
- Soft tissue work on the suboccipitals and upper traps.
- Posture and ergonomic coaching for desk/screen workers.
- Sleep position and pillow recommendations.
