Do You Suffer With Headaches? Get Long-Term Results With Chiropractic!

Dr. Ganim G. Howard

Research has revealed that chiropractic patients not only experience improvement in the frequency and severity of their headaches while under regular chiropractic care, but they also continue to express these benefits even if their care program is interrupted.

This study, conducted at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, collected information from more than 2,500 sources and compared how patients with different types of headaches responded to different approaches such as chiropractic care, acupuncture, drug therapy, exercise and relaxation techniques.

Results showed that chiropractic adjustments “appeared to result in immediate improvement in headache severity” in patients experiencing cervicogenic headaches. Chiropractic care resulted in “sustained improvement in headache frequency and severity.”

When chiropractic care was compared with drug therapy, results showed that both groups experienced approximately the same immediate effect. However, patients who took the drug experienced some type of adverse effect eighty-two percent of the time.

True healing takes place when the body is functioning better. That is the foundation that chiropractors have been educating their patients on for over 109 years. Chiropractors provide an effective, natural, drugless, and non-surgical approach to headaches. Chiropractors rely on the body's inbuilt recuperative abilities. They also recommend lifestyle changes - in eating, exercise, and sleeping habits to their patients.

Chiropractic has long been successful helping individuals with headaches to relieve their suffering once and for all. Wouldn't it make more sense to find a solution that actually corrects the neurological cause of the headaches rather than to continue to cover up the symptoms with drugs that may, in fact, cause more damage?
