Headaches: Northwood Chiropractor Explains

Although the vast majority of people will experience a headache at some point in their lifetime, regular headaches aren't normal and you shouldn't have to suffer with them. At Northwood Chiropractic Oxford, we focus on getting to the root cause of headaches. The vast majority of cases will last minutes to hours and are not life threatening however can be debilitating and if not resolved by themselves, may indicate an issue that needs looking at. The body is able to heal itself very effectively unless there's something stopping this healing process. If your headache is not going away by itself, it would suggest something is stopping your body from healing naturally. This needs to be identified before it can be effectively resolved. This is what we specialise in at Northwood Chiropractic.

Chiropractors are trained to detect and correct misalignments within the spine that may be causing your headache. At Northwood Chiropractic, we spend the time to identify the exact cause of your headaches. We often get very good results with this type of issue due to the large contribution that the neck has to headaches as well as migraines.

Through a thorough assessment of your spine, we can identify where the problem originates. This detailed approach allows us to provide a targeted approach to address the root cause rather than just masking symptoms. As Chiropractors we are also trained to rule out the very rare but serious causes of headaches that would require medical attention. This means that in the rare case that your issue isn't something that we as Chiropractors can help you with, we will be able to guide to someone that can.
