Stop Denver Headaches Naturally

Read this article carefully and find out what kind of headache you have, what causes them and what a Denver chiropractor can do about them.

The international headache society categorizes 129 different causes of headache, and nail in the skull is one of them. Mr. Patrick Lawler was in Breckenridge, Colorado when he accidently shot himself in the mouth with a nail gun. He didn’t think a lot about it and went six days WITH A NAIL IN HIS BRAIN. It nearly hit his eyeball. He thought he might be having some dental pain and visited a dentist’s office. It was discovered the nail pierced his skull. They rushed him to the hospital and an amazing thing happened. As strange and as rare this occurrence is, they had seen it before. They saw another person with a nail in the brain with hardly any symptoms. The doctors surgically removed the nail from his brain and the patient said, “It definitely makes one think about a profession change. I might use a smaller nail gun or maybe I’ll just stick to hammers.”

You probably aren’t walking around with a nail in your brain. There are much more common causes of headache. Did you know most headaches came from the neck? Many times they are called “tension headaches” and are brought about by muscle tension. Research from Duke University done in 2001 shows techniques like those used at my center, get excellent results with this all too common complaint.

I specialize in removing the most common cause of headaches, without drugs and their side effects.

Most headaches come from the neck. Spinal adjustment (gently realigning the spine) is an effective way of addressing the cause of most headaches. I use a safe comfortable technique that removes pressure from the nervous system by gently realigning the joints of the neck.

When the spine is out of alignment, people notice certain foods or circumstances can set off severe head pain like:

• Noises
• Lights
• StressStaying up late
• Excessive exercise
• Blood sugar problems
• Wine
• Cigarettes
• Hard cheeses

When the spine is properly lined up, people notice they don’t have headaches, or don’t get them nearly as much.

Just sitting at a computer can cause a headache. Sitting perfectly still can trigger head pain. Be sure to take a break every 30-40 minutes to stretch when you’re working this way. If you would like a copy of exercises that help, call my center (303) 394-CARE (2273). We will provide these techniques for free if you mention this article.

Low impact exercises like walking can relieve headache pain.

Avoiding heavy exercise will help prevent headache as well.

Don’t clench your teeth, as this can provoke headaches. The upper teeth should never touch the lowers except when swallowing. Clenching leads to T.M.J. (temporomandibular joint) problems. This is also called T.M.D. or T.M.J.D. and refers to inflammation of the jaw joint. I have special techniques that align the jaw joint and offer great relief for patients with this painful condition. I also provide specific exercises that provide relief as well.

Drinking water will relieve headaches from dehydration. If you feel fatigue, dizzy, or headache drink at least one or more 8 ounce glasses of water a day and avoid caffeine to stay hydrated. For example avoid:

• Coffee
• Chocolate
• Cola drinks
• Teas that contain caffeine.

Certain foods can lead to headaches particularly:

• Salty foods
• Sugary foods
• Dairy
• Excessive protein or red meat
• Alcohol
• Sardines
• Energy drinks

As an expert in ergonomics, I offer advice about work place stations so people can work safely at computer terminals. I provide patients with exercises and relaxation techniques they can use to help themselves.

The most neglected area of headache care is the alignment of the spine and it’s relationship with the nervous system. At my center I utilize modern methods that are very safe and comfortable. I hold the highest ratings in a specialized technique that gets wonderful results with headaches.
