Chiropractic: A Holistic, Drug-Free Solution for Headaches

Relief can sometimes be immediate with the right chiropractic adjustment.

Common Types of Headaches

Tension Headaches

These are among the most common types of headaches.

Tension headaches, also known as cervicogenic headaches, are caused by muscle tension in the neck and shoulders—often the result of poor posture, prolonged desk work, or screen time. This tension pulls on the base of the skull and can trigger headaches that radiate from the neck to the forehead, behind the eyes, or across the scalp.

These headaches are especially common among office workers, students, and anyone who spends long hours sitting or driving. Fortunately, chiropractic care offers fast, effective relief.

Most patients begin to feel improvements the same day—many even notice a reduction in headache intensity immediately after treatment. 

Migraines

With pain that often lingers for hours on one side of the head, migraines can take a serious toll on your quality of life.

While the exact cause of migraines is still not fully understood, one thing is clear: certain physical triggers can set them off—especially tension or misalignment in the joints of the upper neck, near the base of the skull. These misalignments can irritate surrounding nerves, restrict blood flow, and contribute to the cascade of symptoms many migraine sufferers experience.

We focus on identifying and correcting these structural triggers through gentle, precise chiropractic adjustments. When the trigger is removed, the migraine often stops—or is significantly reduced in frequency and severity.

For many patients, routine adjustments are a natural, holistic and cost effective way to manage their migraines. 

Does Magnesium Really Help with Headache Relief?

Most people don’t realize they’re deficient—until the headaches stop.

 Magnesium plays a critical role in brain function, muscle relaxation, and nerve regulation—all of which are closely tied to headaches and migraines. Studies have shown that low magnesium levels are common in individuals who suffer from frequent headaches, especially migraines. Unfortunately, magnesium deficiency is widespread, often due to stress, poor diet, and modern soil depletion.

There are several forms of magnesium, like magnesium threonate—a unique form of magnesium that crosses the blood-brain barrier and has been shown to support cognitive health and reduce migraine frequency.

Unlike generic supplements found at big box stores, our clinic carries only professional-grade magnesium sourced for optimal absorption and effectiveness.

As part of our patient-centered approach, we keep supplement pricing affordable to ensure our care remains accessible and holistic.

Whether you're seeking headache relief or better overall wellness, we offer solutions that work—without overcharging for quality.

Can Poor Posture Cause Headaches? Absolutely.

Your posture does more than affect how you look—it directly impacts how you feel.

 

In today’s world of laptops, smartphones, and long hours at the desk, poor posture has become one of the leading—and most overlooked—causes of chronic headaches. Constantly looking down at screens or slouching forward can strain the muscles of the neck, upper back, and shoulders.

This tension can compress nerves, irritate joints, reduce breathing capacity, and trigger cervicogenic headaches that radiate from the neck to the forehead and eyes.

At Green Space Health, posture correction is one of the most common and effective solutions we offer for chronic headaches.

Through targeted chiropractic adjustments, posture-specific rehab exercises, and ergonomic advice, we help patients relieve pain and restore proper alignment—naturally.
