Headache. Doesn’t the
word make your head ache?!
Today’s busy world, its
stress and fast pace, finds many
Brooks folks struggling with
headache.
Soft Health and Healing Clinic sees it every day. Many of our
Brooks chiropractic patients pursue alleviation
of their headache pain with Brooks
chiropractic care.
Soft Health and Healing Clinic combines
chiropractic treatment with suggested
exercise to many headache sufferers to manage and find relief
of headache pain.
Causes
First, what precipitates
a chronic tension-type headache? Emotional and physical issues but not necessarily
depression or anxiety explains one article. (1)
Brooks friends and family can see how physical and emotional
issues affect
headaches. Soft Health and Healing Clinic always has time to listen
when a Brooks chiropractic patient needs to talk about
life and its many changes and challenges. Life has a huge effect on how
we all act in our Brooks intertwined lives.
Tension
headaches are even seen in Brooks young people. Tension headaches in girls aged 9 to 18
years unsettle the girl’s life and raise concerns for her family and healthcare
givers. (2) All Brooks headache sufferers want
one thing: help for headache pain relief.
Approaches to Relief
Regrettably, chronic
daily headache sufferers – including many Brooks headache sufferers
– go after help that ends up not helping
them. One study presented that many headache sufferers undergo unnecessary additional diagnostic exams and
ineffective treatment that contribute to their misunderstanding
their condition. (3) And, oddly, researchers discover
more fatty infiltration in older ladies’ upper cervical spine muscles who experience
cervicogenic headache. (4) So might
exercise aid in decreasing these types of Brooks
headaches? Great question!
Soft Health and Healing Clinic sees the frustration of Brooks
headache sufferers who pursue but do not find
headache pain relief. Research reports that cognitive
behavioral therapy helps some with chronic daily headache. (3) Mindfulness
meditation is another approach. Those who incorporate this approach also use moderate exercise, experience
low back pain, neck pain and headache, and report being
sad, nervous and/or frequently stressed. (5) Exercise offers more
benefits. Soft Health and Healing Clinic combines gentle Brooks chiropractic Cox
Technic treatment to the cervical spine with neck exercises to enhance the
relief. .
Simple Exercise
Soft Health and Healing Clinic assures
our Brooks headache patients
that the exercises may be simple yet valuable. Cervico-scapulothoracic
strengthening and endurance exercises including pressure biofeedback for
chronic headache allowed small to moderate improvement of pain,
function and overall help. (6) Strength training and counseling for these
headaches assisted in reducting the headaches’ frequency
and improved other factors like muscle balance and shoulder
strength. (2) Strengthening exercises are favorable!
Soft Health and Healing Clinic will demonstrate to you some simple strengthening
exercises to relieve headache pain.
