Chiropractic Great for Cervicogenic Headaches

We know how difficult persistent headache pain can be. Dynamic Chiropractic and our staff have worked with many people in our Memphis chiropractic practice, and we've had great success in helping people reduce their headache pain.

Research Proves Chiropractic Therapy Helps With Cervicogenic Headaches

A 2016 research paper verifies what we see in our clinic. In this report, the authors started with 110 individuals who were suffering from headaches that originated in the cervical spine. 58 of these patients were given a series of neck adjustments; 52 were given some stretches and exercises. The treatment period for both groups was four weeks.

The study found that the patients who received cervical and thoracic spinal adjustments "experienced significantly greater reductions in headache intensity, disability, headache frequency, headache duration, and medication intake as compared to the group that received mobilization and exercise."

The study also found that these outcomes were maintained at the three-month follow-up exam.

Chiropractic is a safe and effective way to treat headache, back pain, neck pain, and many other health conditions. If you're tired of suffering, give Dynamic Chiropractic a call today at our Memphis office at (901) 757-8311. We're here to help get you relief.
