FAQs

What are Headaches?

A headache is a broad term used for pain that can wrap around your head or be concentrated in one specific area, such as your temples or behind your eyes. Headaches can be highly debilitating, making it difficult to focus. If you suffer from frequent headaches, they can significantly impact your well-being.

Headaches can be triggered by various circumstances, illnesses, or injuries. In some cases, however, they occur without a clear cause or trigger.

At Revive Chiropractic, our team performs a thorough evaluation, reviews your medical history and symptoms, and explores all potential causes of your headaches or migraines.

Once we have a diagnosis, we’ll create a personalized treatment or management strategy tailored to your specific needs. Our goal is to help you eliminate headaches as they happen and prevent future episodes.

Which type of Headache do I have?

There are different types of headaches, each with its own unique symptoms and triggers. The team at Revive Chiropractic can help identify which of these common types of headaches you may be experiencing:

  • Tension Headaches: These headaches present as pain or pressure on both sides of the head or around the head, often radiating into the neck. They can be episodic (occurring occasionally) or chronic (occurring 15 or more days a month for at least three months).

  • Cluster Headaches: Cluster headaches occur in cycles, meaning you may experience one after another in a short period of time. They can happen up to eight times a day and typically last for 4-12 weeks.

  • Migraines: Migraines usually affect one side of the head and are often accompanied by symptoms like sensitivity to light and sound, dizziness, and nausea. Like tension headaches, migraines can be episodic or chronic.

  • Cervicogenic Headaches: These headaches stem from issues in the cervical spine (the neck region). They may be accompanied by neck pain, difficulty moving the head, or coughing.

How are Headaches treated?

At Revive Chiropractic, we take an individualized approach to managing your headaches with functional medicine. A typical treatment plan might include:

  • Dietary recommendations and adjustments
  • Medications or changes to existing medications
  • Vitamins and supplements
  • Stress management techniques
  • Massage therapy
  • Spinal injections
  • Chiropractic adjustments

Throughout your treatment, we’ll monitor your progress and may request regular check-ins to ensure the treatment plan is working effectively. If your headaches persist or return, we can make adjustments to your plan.
