Who we are

Pain principle

Chiropractic care seeks to identify and address the underlying causes of headache pain, particularly in the spine and neck. By correcting spinal misalignments and considering lifestyle factors, chiropractors aim to provide long-term relief and prevent recurring headaches.

Tension-type headache

Tension-type headaches are among the most common types of headaches, often characterized by a dull, aching pain that wraps around the head. They can result from muscle tension, stress, poor posture, or other factors. These headaches can impact your daily life and productivity, causing discomfort and irritation.

Cluster headaches

Cluster headaches are intense and excruciating headaches that typically occur in cycles or clusters. They are often described as one of the most painful types of headaches a person can experience. Cluster headaches are characterized by severe, stabbing pain on one side of the head, often around the eye or temple. They can be accompanied by symptoms such as red or teary eyes, nasal congestion, and restlessness.
