Cervicogenic Headaches
Cervicogenic Headaches
These are headaches that appear to stem from the cervical (neck) region of the spine, often referring into the head or upper back.
Symptoms can often include things like; headache symptoms relating to neck movement, pain/pressure over the upper neck / base of skull areas, restricted neck movement and or one sided neck/shoulder/arm pain.
If you’re a headache sufferer read on to see how Chiropractic could help you.
What should you look for?
Most headaches aren’t due to serious disease/illness or pathology, but if you are experiencing any of the following you should seek expert advice:
- Dizziness of unknown cause
- Double vision
- Difficulty talking
- Difficulty swallowing
- Sudden fainting attacks
- Nausea and vomiting
- Facial numbness / pins and needles
- Uncontrolled movements of the eyes.
How can a Chiropractor help?
The use of pain medication is one of more common ways headaches are treated. Unfortunately, although effective in the short-term, they should’t be used as a long-term strategy to manage the complaint.
Getting to the underlying neck/postural/ lifestyle issues that can generate the pain is where your Chiropractor can really help!
Techniques such as spinal manipulations (adjustments) along with soft tissue work and specific exercises/advice can really assist you in resolving/managing your headaches.
