Headache Relief in Lake Oswego, Oregon
We Specialize in Treating Headaches and Migraines
Headaches are one of the most common conditions we see at Modern Chiropractic — and often one of the most misunderstood. Many headaches don't start in the head at all. They stem from tension in the neck, tightness in the shoulders, or misalignment in the upper spine. Whether you're dealing with occasional tension headaches or debilitating migraines, our team looks past the symptom to find and treat the root cause.
Common Causes of Headaches We Treat
Headaches can stem from a number of sources, and pinpointing the cause is the key to lasting relief. We regularly help patients dealing with:
- Tension headaches from stress, poor posture, or muscle tightness
- Cervicogenic headaches originating from the neck and upper spine
- Migraines linked to spinal misalignment or nervous system irritation
- Tech neck and screen-related strain
- Headaches following whiplash or a car accident
- Jaw tension and TMJ-related headaches
How Our Chiropractors Treat Headaches
At Modern Chiropractic, we treat headaches by addressing the underlying cause, not just the pain. After a thorough evaluation, your chiropractor will build a treatment plan that may include:
- Chiropractic adjustments to relieve pressure on the nerves and joints in the neck and upper spine
- Massage therapy to release tension in the neck, shoulders, and jaw
- Laser therapy to calm inflammation and support healing
- Acupuncture to ease tension and support the nervous system
- At-home exercises and stretches to help prevent headaches between visits
When to See a Chiropractor for Headaches
Frequent headaches aren't something you have to live with. Consider scheduling an appointment if you're experiencing:
- Headaches that happen more than once a week
- Pain that starts at the base of the skull or in the neck
- Headaches triggered by long hours at a desk or on a screen
- Migraines that haven't responded to medication alone
- Headaches that started after a car accident, fall, or injury
