Headaches are common, but they are not normal. Unfortunately, we live in a drug culture where pain pills for pain relief of various types are the most common approach to finding temporary relief. Here at Clarendon Chiropractic, our chiropractors in Westmont work with patients throughout DuPage County and the surrounding areas. Allow us to help you get back to optimal health.
In our chiropractic functional medicine practice, we take a different approach to the treatment and prevention of headaches such as migraines and cluster headaches. Most doctors only treat the symptoms of the pain. We specialize in treating the causes of your pain for optimal health and wellness. With the use of very specialized neurological and functional laboratory analysis during our chiropractic care, no stone will be left unturned in determining the exact cause of your headaches.
When the upper part of your brainstem, the mesencephalon, over-fires or becomes hyperactive, it causes blood vessels in the head to contract and later expand. This is what causes migraines along with related symptoms, such as back pain and neck pain.
But what causes the brainstem to over-fire? Problems ranging from the misaligned vertebra (subluxations) causing neurological weakness, metabolic and autoimmune issues such as celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivities to hidden infections and metal/chemical toxicity could be the reasons.
With our neurological and functional assessment, we can pinpoint the cause of your pain and correct it, so you can have your quality life back and feel like your best self again.
Because headaches and migraines can have several contributing factors, effective care should look beyond short-term pain relief. At Clarendon Chiropractic, our chiropractic clinic evaluates how spinal alignment, neck tension, posture, nervous system stress, and whole-body health may be connected to recurring headache symptoms.
For patients in Westmont, Clarendon Hills, Hinsdale, Downers Grove, Oak Brook, Darien, La Grange, Western Springs, Woodridge, and nearby communities, chiropractic care may be helpful when headaches are linked to neck pain, upper back tension, restricted spinal movement, or past injuries. A personalized chiropractic adjustment plan may help improve spinal function, reduce stress on irritated nerves, and support better movement through the neck and upper spine.
Many people treat headaches as normal, especially when they happen often. However, recurring headaches, migraines, or cluster headaches may be a sign that something deeper is contributing to the problem.
You may benefit from visiting a chiropractor for headaches if you experience frequent migraines, headaches that begin in the neck, pain that worsens after sitting at a desk, tension through the shoulders, reduced neck mobility, or symptoms that return even after medication. Patients from Downers Grove, Hinsdale, and Oak Brook often seek chiropractic care when headaches begin interfering with work, sleep, family life, or daily focus.
Clarendon Chiropractic provides care for headaches and migraines with attention to both spinal function and overall wellness. For some patients, headache pain may be related to posture, neck strain, stress, auto accident injuries, whiplash, inflammation, or other underlying health concerns.
By combining chiropractic care with a broader wellness perspective, our team can help patients better understand what may be contributing to recurring headaches.
