If you have frequent or chronic headaches or migraines that affect your ability to go about your normal daily routine, a chiropractor can help. At Silverdale Chiropractic Health & Injury Center, our chiropractors and massage therapists offer drug-free, non-invasive headache and migraine treatment in Silverdale, WA. Take a look at the benefits of chiropractic pain relief for headaches and migraines. 

Identifying Your Triggers

Headaches and migraines are caused by internal or external factors called triggers. Some people have more than one trigger. By identifying your triggers, we can find the most effective headache treatment plan for you, and help you avoid future headaches. The most common triggers are stress and anxiety, but other triggers are:

  • Food sensitivities and allergies
  • Environmental factors like noise, bright lights, and strong smells
  • Weather
  • Hormonal changes
  • Alcohol
  • Caffeine withdrawal
  • Lack of sleep
  • Dehydration
  • Side effects from medication
  • Symptoms of illness

Finding the Right Treatment Plan

Our chiropractors and massage therapists will work together to design a personalized treatment plan. This plan will target the underlying cause of your headaches and migraines, rather than just recommending prescription medication to mask your symptoms. We will likely recommend a combination of holistic chiropractic therapies to give you the best chance of success. We specialize in chiropractic care, massage therapy, extremity adjustments, diet and nutrition counseling, therapeutic exercise, and lifestyle modifications.

Preventing Future Headaches 

In addition to treating your headache and migraine symptoms, we will also work with you to prevent future headaches and migraines. We may recommend lifestyle changes, changes to your diet, and changes to your work environment, including recommending that you:

  • Get more sleep or change your sleep position
  • Drink more water
  • Avoid alcohol
  • Work with your primary care physician to adjust your medication dosage if medication is causing your headaches and migraines
  • Adjust your diet to avoid foods you’re sensitive to
  • Take vitamins or supplements
  • Get more exercise
  • Avoid environmental triggers
  • Change your workstation so it’s more ergonomic
