Headaches vary greatly in size and intensity, ranging from a dull ache in the temples to severe pain that can impair vision.
Not all headaches are the same. They differ in severity, symptoms, and causes. Common types of headaches include tension, cluster, migraine, organic, rebound, and chronic daily headaches.
If you suffer from any of these headaches, you are not alone. Millions of people regularly experience headache pain.
Tension Headaches
Tension headaches are among the most common types, often related to stress, anxiety, or depression. About 90% of all headaches are tension-related.
With a tension headache, the pain is generally spread throughout the head rather than localized to the temples, sinuses, or another specific spot. Women are more prone to tension headaches than men, but they can affect anyone at any time.
Cluster Headaches
Approximately 1 million people in the US suffer from cluster headaches. These are sharp, intensely painful headaches that can occur multiple times in a single day over weeks or months. They can then disappear for a similar period, only to return later.
Migraines
Migraine headaches are considered a biological disease affecting nearly 30 million people in the US annually. One in four people in the US suffers from migraines, more than diabetes, coronary heart disease, and asthma combined.
Common Causes of Headaches
Headaches often stem from an imbalance within the body, which can be due to stress, anxiety, trauma, or other factors.
An imbalance in one part of the body can impact the entire system. For instance, stress in the upper back or shoulder muscles can lead to headaches and pain in other areas of the body.
Headache Treatment Options
Many people treat headaches with over-the-counter painkillers like aspirin. However, these medications only mask the symptoms temporarily, allowing you to return to normal activities without discomfort.
Eventually, the underlying cause of the headaches will resurface, bringing the pain back.
Now, there is an all-natural, organic headache treatment that addresses the root causes of headaches for permanent relief: spinal decompression.
Benefits of Gentle, Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Treatment
Our spinal disc doctors specialize in restoring the body’s natural balance through a series of small decompressions in the affected area. The spine and its related discs are the framework for the body, so when they are gently and naturally realigned, it can quickly and permanently relieve headaches and other pains.
