Coquitlam Tension Headache Sufferers Find Relief With Chiropractic

By Ted Strothers


Tension headaches can involve a dull ache that lasts for hours and is experienced around the eye sockets. In most cases, the symptoms will become worse and individuals impacted by the strain will no longer be able to engage in regular activities. The Coquitlam chiropractor takes a holistic approach to addressing and alleviating physical ailments.

The development of a stress headache can become increasingly severe and chronic placing debilitating effects on function. Individuals who experience head pain on an irregular basis, trouble with allergies and seasonal sinus may be an issue. It is important to seek alternatives to ensure that such conditions remain adequately managed and healthy living is promoted.

Most people who experience these types of headaches will often make use of medication to alleviate the pain. Whether you purchase over the counter or prescription medication, it cannot relieve the underlying cause for symptoms. It will simply contribute to adverse effects on physical function and hinder the overall healing process.

The naturally based intervention can be sought for a decrease in pain. Warm and cold packs placed on the temples and the face serves to relieve swelling and strain that causes intense squeezing sensations. Modifying your daily diet and quitting poor habits such as smoking can relieve a great deal of irritation and pain.

Massage therapy can assist in decreasing the experience of stress that is often a major contributing factor in tension headaches. Massaging the temples and the scalp serves to relax irritated nerves and facilitate increased circulation for healing to take place. Muscle strain and spasms in the neck and shoulders can be relieved to prevent head pain.

A complete examination of function is required to identify the cause for ongoing symptoms. Individualized programs are required to ensure that stress placed on bodily function and psychological capabilities can be decreased. It is important to consider the options available to live a healthier and fully functional lifestyle without ongoing tension headaches.

The treatment plan devised by the physician that Jerome saw included three main areas - muscle relaxer medicine, PT work done at the SpineOne Rehab Center, and 3 minimally invasive injections that were intended to "kick-start" the healing process - the injections had both steroids to assist in healing and an anesthesia to help with the pain.
