Did you know chiropractic can be effective in providing natural relief of headaches, not just back pain?
The primary focus of chiropractic is the location, correction and prevention of impairments to the nervous system. Chiropractic care can be effective in headache management because it corrects impairments which often cause headaches.
In a study conducted at Macquarie University, specific chiropractic adjustments to the spine significantly reduced migraines in 71% of the people surveyed. The frequency, duration, severity and amount of medication all decreased markedly*.
