CHIROPRACTIC FOR HEADACHE RELIEF
A Augusta headache is not unusual. Some people get headaches once in a great while while others get a headache daily. The causes of headache are varied. Most headaches are minor inconveniences that go away with minimal intervention. A rare headache may indicate more of a problem, but a thorough clinical examination like that provided by Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic can rule out a serious cause and help address the pain of a bothersome headache.
Chiropractic offers non-surgical pain relief to headache sufferers in Augusta. The practice of Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic is equipped with chiropractic Cox Technic, a gentle, safe treatment to effectively address the cervical spine source of headache pain. Its gentle stretching as described by patients not only feels good, but may be the answer to your headache pain.
COMMON HEADACHE SYMPTOMS and CAUSES
When you have a headache, do you notice the tightness and pain in your neck, shoulders, and often most noticeably at the base of your skull where your head meets the neck? This is the nerve irritation and muscle spasm prompted by many causes resulting in radiating pain into the head – the so-called headache. Causes of headache are varied, but many commonly stem from a problem in the neck (cervical spine) like disc degeneration (1), spinal stenosis, disc herniation (2,3), pinched nerves, facet joint irritation (4), even cerebrospinal fluid flow in the spinal cord (5).
These changes are also called arthritis, though the term is not technically correct for disc degeneration. However, such disc degeneration does cause arthritis in the spine joints - facet joints - that lie behind the discs.

CHIROPRACTIC HEADACHE RELIEF:
Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic's Use Of The Cox System Of Spinal Manipulation May Relieve Augusta Headache Pain
Cox Technic spinal manipulation creates change in the spine demonstrated as follows:
- The disc space is increased in its height by up to 20%
- The size of the nerve openings are increased up to 28% in size and area, allowing more space for the nerve root to occupy and release pressure on the nerve.
- The pressure inside the disc, which pushes a disc herniation outward, is decreased from a positive pressure that pushes the disc outward against the nerve, to a negative pressure that reverses the outward pressure on the disc to a negative pressure inside the disc that acts like a suction to draw the disc herniation back between the vertebrae (spinal bones).
- The motion of Cox Technic spinal manipulation stimulates nerve endings that send relaxing and pain-relieving impulses to the spinal cord and brain. This sedates pain and creates a healing of the inflamed tissues.
