What Are Tension Headaches?

 

​​

Tension headaches are the most common type of headache. They are often described as constant pressure or tightness around the head, like a band around the forehead, temples, and the area behind the eyes. They may come and go during certain activities or recur day after day, leaving you weary and irritable.

​

​

If these symptoms sound familiar, chiropractic care can be a game-changer.

 

While the exact cause of tension headaches varies, some common triggers are:

• Spending too much time in one position (e.g., sitting at a computer, holding your sleeping baby, etc.)

• Holding stress in your neck and upper back

• Anxiety and physical or emotional stress

• Jaw clenching or grinding

• Not getting enough quality rest

• Not drinking enough water​

The treatment and lifestyle education provided by a great chiropractor can help!

How Chiropractic Care Helps with Tension Headache Relief

 

At Lifeway Mobile Chiropractic, we don’t just treat the symptoms—we work to uncover and address the root cause of your headaches. That’s what sets chiropractic care apart from both over-the-counter and prescription pain relievers: they can't fix the problem; they just keep you from feeling the pain for a little while.

​​

Read on to learn how we help provide real tension headache relief:​

​​

1. Targeting Muscle Tension and Postural Strain

 

When your joints and muscles work well together, you feel great. When they don't, that lack of strength and stability especially in your neck, shoulders, and upper back creates a chain reaction that often leads to tension headaches. Through safe adjustments and effective muscle therapies, chiropractic care helps restore your body’s ability to move well, reducing physical strain and pain.

​

​

2. Improving Nervous System Function

 

Your spine is the protective housing around the spinal cord, your nervous

system's superhighway. Tension, stiffness, or misalignment in the spinal

regions can interfere with how your body & brain communicate, triggering

dysfunction, inflammation, and pain. Chiropractic care supports healthy

nervous system function, regulating over- or under-active nerves and

helping your headaches become less severe and less frequent.

​

3. Customized Stretches and Lifestyle Support

 

We go beyond the adjustment, providing simple lifestyle advice, effective stretching & strengthening exercises, and posture tips tailored to your daily routine. The goal is to create real, sustainable change in how your body feels and functions.

>> Goodbye, tension headaches at work.
