Denver CO Chiropractor Has Headache Relief Techniques

By Frank Carbart


Headaches come in over 100 varieties, being grouped by cause and symptoms. Listed are some that are frequently tended by a Denver CO chiropractor:

Tension: Also known as a stress, non-progressive, chronic, or daily headache, this is the most commonly reported type, especially in teens and adults. The pain level is typically mild to moderate, usually manifesting as an intermittent throb. They generally coincide with stressful situations and are often effectively relieved with chiropractic therapeutic massage techniques.

Migraines: This classification generally manifests as a stabbing, throbbing, pounding pain accompanied by other symptoms. Their duration varies from a few hours, to days, or even weeks. They might even appear multiple times within a month and be debilitating. Side effects include stomach cramps, light and noise sensitivity, and motion sickness. These can be difficult to pinpoint but correcting spinal alignment is typically effective at reducing the severity and frequency of these headaches.

Cluster headaches: This type of headache is not too common and this is a good thing because this type of headache is considered by those who have suffered from them to be the single most intense and painful headache they have ever experienced. People describe it as a burning or piercing pain behind the eyes, and it can come and go or be constant.

Most people can not tolerate the intensity of a cluster headache. If they are able stand leaving the bed long enough to visit a chiropractic office, an spinal adjustment or therapeutic massage is often able to ease the pain and relieve some tension.

Sinus: This category generally appears when a person is suffering an allergy or congestion. The headaches commonly appear alongside the onset of Sinusitis, allergies, or infections. Additional symptoms include, cough, low grade fever, sneezing, runny nose, facial swelling, sore throat, and plugged ears. It surprises many people to discover that chiropractic techniques are effective at alleviating the pains and debilitating pressure that are typical of this condition.

Mixed headache syndrome: These may also be referred to as transformed migraines. A blend of tension and migraine headaches, they appear in both children and adults, alike. They are diagnosed commonly. Although their duration is typically short, the intensity, severity, and frequency will vary with each individual's situation. The condition can be painlessly alleviated with specific chiropractic methods.
