Headaches, like any pain in the body is a sign that something is not quite right. Your brain will create for you the sensation of pain if it thinks there is something wrong or if it thinks there is a potential problem.
The head is actually the most common site of pain in the body
A number of scientific research studies have shown chiropractic patients had fewer headaches that control groups and took less medication by the end of the follow up period. There appeared to be a small beneficial effect of being seen more often but the results of this study weren’t conclusive when it comes to frequency of care.
This means that for some people if their spines are not functioning well it can cause headaches or migraines. But for others who have spinal dysfunction – what chiropractors call subluxations – it may cause back pain or neck pain. A lot more research is still needed to be done in this area to figure this out.
