Customized Headache Treatment with Chiropractic Care
Experiencing frequent, long-lasting headaches can be a nightmare, especially when you don’t know what’s causing them. A bad headache can ruin your whole day, and make it hard to work, sleep, or enjoy your hobbies. If you have persistent headaches or migraines, one of our chiropractors at Tree City Chiropractic can provide safe, effective, and non-invasive headache treatments in Tualatin, so you can get back to your normal life pain-free.
Finding the Underlying Cause of Your Headaches
The first thing we will do is try to find the underlying cause of your headaches. We will perform diagnostic imaging tests to see if the headaches have a neurological cause. If they don’t, we may ask you a number of questions about the frequency and severity of the headaches, your activities or diet leading up to each headache, and your overall medical and medication history. Some headaches can be caused by tension, lack of sleep, dehydration, food allergies or dietary triggers, side-effects of medication, or an environmental factor.
Design a Customized Treatment Plan
Once we have discovered the underlying cause of your headaches, we can design a customized treatment plan that relieves your symptoms and lessens the chance of the headaches recurring. This may include diet and exercise counseling, relaxation and meditation techniques, and lifestyle or environmental modifications. We will also recommend physical modalities to treat the headaches and symptoms. This may include massage therapy, acupuncture, laser therapy, therapeutic ultrasound, heat therapy, muscle stimulation, or chiropractic adjustments.
Consistency is Key
In order to prevent your headaches from returning or worsening, it’s important to remain consistent with your treatment plan. For instance, if you get migraines that are triggered by ingesting dairy, you need to cut dairy out of your diet with no slip-ups. If you get tension headaches, you’ll need to be consistent with relaxation techniques, diet and exercise, and massage therapy.
