Castro Valley Chiropractic Care and Headaches Treatment

We’ve all experienced headaches at least once in our life. Many experience it more often than others as this type of pain has many causes. One cause is stress so people who experience day to day stress suffer from headache more often than a person who knows how to take control of their stress levels.  The Castro Valley Chiropractic Care professionals have several patients who suffer from frequent cephalgias as caused by stress.

One way to get rid of headache is by relieving our body with the stress through spinal manipulation. Patients who underwent spinal manipulation swear that the frequency of their cephalgias had been greatly reduced. This is because the success rate of chiropractic care in treating this type of pain is quite impressive. And patients notice that the effects of the treatment last for a long time. Some patients are headache free for several years after their spinal manipulation sessions.

Chiropractic care treats mostly patients with back problems as well as those who suffer from frequent headaches and debilitating migraine. These three are the most common problems patients complain about whenever they go to the Castro Valley Chiropractic clinics. Every patient is different though and every case requires different approach as the symptoms have different causes of the problem that has to be diagnosed properly.  Effective treatment for any health problem is the right diagnosis which includes a thorough interview with the patient to learn about the past health problems or accidents that may trigger the headache.

So, how do spinal manipulation help treat headaches?  Our brain is connected to the spine with the many number of nerves. Actually, the spine sends messages directly to our brain. Once the spine is manipulated and the subluxated vertebraes are corrected, the pressure is removed on the nerves that lead to the brain. Once these are put back in place, the messages that are sent by the nerves to the brain can smoothly flow. Your Castro Valley chiropractic professional would tell you more about the different techniques s/he may use on you to optimize the benefits.

Chiropractic care is really effective but patients should understand that they should not completely rely only on the chiropractic treatment to get rid of the symptoms. It is best to consult with your doctor first to have a thorough examination to see what the cause of the problem is. You must also let your doctor know that you are considering the chiropractic treatment. Sometimes headaches are caused by more serious conditions that need immediate attention from a health professional. Your doctor and chiropractor should work hand in hand as depending on your condition. If the chiropractor think that your condition requires immediate attention or you should be rushed to the emergency room then you should go right away. Your headache maybe due to something more serious or you may already be hemorrhaging because of an accident. Your Castro Valley chiropractic professionals will make sure you get the best care necessary for your condition and will not force their services to be the best treatment even when you already need immediate medical attention.
