Understanding Headaches & Migraines
What It Is & Why It Happens
Chronic headaches and migraines almost always have a structural component. Upper cervical misalignment can compress nerves and restrict blood flow to the head, triggering headaches that feel random but are actually driven by a consistent mechanical cause.
Our approach begins with a neurological evaluation to identify upper cervical nervous system stress. From there, we build a corrective care plan focused on the upper cervical spine using gentle Torque Release Technique adjustments — no twisting, no popping.
Many of our headache patients see significant frequency and severity reduction within 4-8 weeks. For patients with migraines that have been unresponsive to medication, this root-cause approach is often the first thing that actually helps.
