Benefits of Headache Treatment With Chiropractic
Chiropractic headache treatment is drug-free and non-invasive. At SunCoast SpineCare: Chiropractic Neurology, our chiropractor Dr. Jay Schwartz focuses on treating the root cause of your headaches and finding safe, effective solutions that help you prevent headaches at work and at home. Here is a look at the biggest benefits of chiropractic headache treatment in Bradenton, FL.
Avoid Dangerous Prescription Medications
Prescription medication can often be dangerous, even when used properly. Taking prescription painkillers regularly increases your risk of dependance and can lead to overuse. Prescription painkillers can also cause dangerous side effects that affect your quality of life and make it hard to work, sleep, eat, and enjoy your hobbies. Dr. Schwartz can design a chiropractic headache treatment plan that does not rely on prescription medications, and instead focuses on drug-free pain relief and headache prevention using chiropractic care.
Treat the Root Cause of Your Headaches
Dr. Schwartz is a board certified chiropractic neurologist and is qualified to perform a comprehensive neurological workup to determine the cause of your headaches, be it migraine or tension headaches. He evaluates the nerves in your neck as well as your cranial nerves, nerves in your head and brain, to determine the cause. He then performs procedures to fix the cause allowing you to lead a pain free life again. By treating the cause rather than only managing pain, he can help you improve your health and lifestyle so that you are less likely to get headaches in the future. Headaches are often caused by biological or environmental triggers, and avoiding these triggers can reduce or eliminate your headaches:
- Stress
- Light
- Sound
- Smells
- Weather
- Food
- Dehydration
- Fatigue or lack of sleep
- Spinal imbalances
- Allergies
- Alcohol
- Caffeine
- Medications
- Poor sleep habits
- Poor posture
- Diet
- Obesity
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Hormone imbalances
- Underlying injury or illness
