Help for headache sufferers

Many things can cause a headache; intense lights; sinus trouble; high blood pressure; dental problems; ear, eye, or vision conditions; fevers; infections; tumors; seizures; lumbar punctures; alcoholic drinks; drugs; accidents and other causes.

What puts the ache in headache?

The ache in headache does not come from the brain. It’s True! Your brain can feel no sensation. Even during brain surgery the patient is often wide awake feeling no pain, even talking to the doctors while his/her brain is being tampered with (a local anesthetic numbs the scalp). What puts the “ache” in your headache? Veins and arteries inside the brain and skull, membranes that wrap around the brain, and certain nerves in the head called the cranial nerves. When these are pulled, stretched, compressed, irritated, inflamed, or infected headaches often result.

Spinal Adjustments and Therapy at Great Health Chiropractic will help to remove the nerve and spinal stress caused by the vertebral subluxation complex.

Jaw clicking? Pain when chewing?

Struggling with jaw pain, clicking, or stiffness? TMJ disorders affect the joint where your skull meets your lower jaw—often from stress, clenching, poor posture, or injury. 😣

What is a TM Joint?
It’s a sliding ball-and-socket joint in front of your ears. When muscles tighten or the disc shifts, it can cause pain, sounds, stiffness, or limited motion.

Types of Joint issues :

• Healthy joint (smooth gliding)
• Compressed joint (tight muscles pulling things out of alignment)
• Injured joint (torn ligament, disc out of position)
• Arthritic joint (worn disc, irritated nerve)
We can help!

Chiropractors take a whole-body approach. They assess your posture, spine, lifestyle, stress levels, and perform gentle exams/adjustments to the jaw and upper spine. No quick fixes, just supporting your body’s natural ability to heal.

What Causes Sciatica?

Sciatica is an inflammation of the sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in your body. It runs from your lower spine, through your buttocks, and foot. When the sciatic nerve is inflamed, it can cause numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness in your lower back and leg.

Inflamed Joint

If a bone (vertebra) in your lower back isn’t moving properly or out of position, the joint can become inflamed and irritate the sciatic nerve.

Spinal Adjustments and Therapy at Great Health Chiropractic will improve mobility, and relieve pain and stiffness.

Help for “pinched” nerves

We need healthy nerves

Without healthy nerves the body is weakened, not able to adapt to environmental stresses and become a candidate for physical and mental diseases.

How do nerves get “ pinched” ?

When the nerves come down from the brain they travel through a bony canal formed by vertebrae. If the vertebrae misaligned slightly they may cause the nerves to be irritated, compresses or stretched along with blood vessels, discus, ligaments, joints, muscles, fascia, tendons, meninges, lymphatics and fat tissue.

What can cause nerve “pinching”?

Some common causes are unnatural sleeping positions, bad posture, fatigue, dental work, a difficult birth, emotional stress, poor nutrition or a combination of stresses ( falling or tripping when fatigued, etc. )

Spinal Adjustments and Therapy at Great Health Chiropractic will relieve irritated nerves and increase movement in your joints and heal “pinched" nerve.

Misaligned vertebrae may irritate your nerves and cause your ligaments and muscles to stretch unevenly.

Sprained ligaments and strained muscles do not provide adequate support for the vertebrae, and can restrict or increase the normal movement or vertebral joints.
