The Path To Natural, Longer Lasting Headache Relief From A Chiropractor In Ellenville NY

By Donna Beley


Headaches are American's most common physical complaint. Instead of making doctor's appointments, most get non-prescription pain medication from local drug stores. Even over the counter antidotes can have unpleasant side effects however. For chronic, or especially severe headaches, contacting a chiropractor for the permanent headache relief Ellenville residents have received may be a good solution.

Headaches are becoming increasingly common as we spend more time in one position and are more sedentary than in the past. Prolonged sitting, such as when working at a desk all day, can lead to joint irritation and muscle tension in the neck, which are the primary causes of most headaches. Spinal manipulations, the most common chiropractic technique, have been shown to considerably alleviate pain. Gentle adjustments relax tense muscles and properly align the vertebrae in the neck and back, relieving pressure on the nervous system.

According to a study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapies, chiropractic interventions can significantly mitigate headaches, especially when multiple modalities are incorporated into patients' care plans. A chiropractor may use acupuncture with adjustments to achieve headache relief. This technique involves inserting tiny needles into the skin at specific pressure points. Research shows that many patients who receive acupuncture find long-lasting headache relief.

Inactivity is only one of the common causes of headaches. They can also be brought on by poor posture and eating habits, stress, and lack of exercise. Chiropractors will suggest a lifestyle regimen that includes avoiding food triggers and eating a well rounded diet rich in vitamins and other nutrients. They can work with clients to develop routines designed to reduce repetitive tasks and prolonged sitting.

When your head hurts, it's hard to do anything. Simple remedies like staying hydrated and eating foods rich in vitamin B complex can help you avoid a painful episode. The American Chiropractic Association has published a series of suggestions for naturally relieving pain.

If you have to spend much of your day doing sedentary activities, get up and stretch every 30 minutes to an hour to avoid putting too much strain on your neck. Going beyond mere pain-management, chiropractic provides practical, effective solutions for chronic headaches.
