Headache Solutions

If you need some natural Headache Solutions we have answers for you here at Reed Chiropractic. Headaches are one of the most debilitating and frustrating problems a person can deal with in their lives. it is a fact that headaches can affect everything from a person thought process, their mood, sleeping patters, and how they interact with others. Headaches are also one of the most common types of pain people have to experience on a regular basis. Research has estimated that nine out of every ten Americans suffer from headache pain at some point in their lives. Any person who suffers with headaches must realize it is not normal to have them. There is a cause to the headaches that must be corrected.

The most common way American’s attack a headache is to take an over the counter pain medication. The problem with medications is that they are numbing the pain but not correcting the cause.  When the medication wears off, the pain typically returns.   This will results in people taking more mediation and increasing their dosage.   Long term medication use can cause numerous damages to a person due to toxicity of prescription medications.

There are hundreds of different types of headaches, but most can fit into one of the three categories listed below. In some cases the headaches may even overlap into more than one category.

Migraine

Moderate to Severe pain

Throbbing sensation

Extreme light, sound, and touch sensitivity

Visual “aura”

Cluster

Excruciating pain

Penetrating, non-throbbing pain

A series of headaches
