There are many different kinds of headaches and they can appear differently with various causes. Most people choose to live with their headaches or take pain killers to cope with the symptoms. Very few people know about the relation of cervical alignment to their condition. Physical, mental, and emotional stress causes spinal cord tension patterns as they are the defense mechanism of the nervous system against external stimuli. A change in spinal cord tension results in altered alignment of the surrounding vertebra. When one of the bones in the neck are misaligned, it can change vascular pressure going up the foramen magnum, reduced lymphatic flow, and increased pain reception in the brain. Chiropractic does an amazing job of reducing headache pain and often times resolves the issue all together.
