Headaches are one of the top conditions we see. Many start in the neck and upper back — and that is where chiropractic can help. Flagler Chiropractic is at 1240 S. Oceanshore Blvd., Flagler Beach, FL — call (386) 439-9001.
Types of headaches we commonly help
- Tension-type headaches — band-like pressure, often tied to stress, posture and tight muscles.
- Cervicogenic headaches — pain that starts in the neck and refers to the head, often one-sided.
- Migraine support — while migraine is a neurological condition, some people find that reducing neck tension and addressing triggers such as posture, sleep and nutrition helps them manage it.
How we help
Care may include adjustments to the neck and upper back, gentle cranial and S.O.T. work, soft-tissue therapy, stretching, posture coaching and nutrition guidance. Research suggests spinal manipulation can reduce the frequency and intensity of cervicogenic and tension-type headaches for many people.
Track your triggers
Keep a simple headache diary: time of day, sleep, food, hydration, screen time and stress. Patterns help us tailor care.
When to seek medical care
Get emergency care for a sudden “worst headache of your life,” headache with fever and stiff neck, confusion, weakness, vision loss, or after a head injury.
