Who has never suffered from a headache? I don’t think that there is one person alive who has never suffered from a headache. Some of us suffer from an occasional headache; others suffer from migraines which can be severely debilitating. Chiropractor Adam Meredith said his headache & migraine treatment in North Sydney, Gladesville, Crows Nest and Mosman Spine and Health Centres are gaining remarkable results with their accurate diagnosis and subsequent treatment.
One of the most common forms of illness in Australia is actually headaches and/or migraines with 1 in 6 people taking headache tablets every day. There are so many different types of headaches, with so many different types of treatments. Recent research is showing more and more that problems with the musco-skeletal system, either directly or referred, are responsible for headaches and migraines, and this is why Adam and his team at North Sydney, Gladesville, Crows Nest and Mosman Spine and Health Centres understand the link between posture and health and have had great success in treating people with headaches and migraines.
The symptoms of migraines vary from person to person, apart from pain in the head, symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to sounds and/or light as well as sensitivity to certain smells, and vision can also be affected. Headaches or migraines can last from a few hours up to a few days and in severe cases even a few weeks.
As headaches and migraines vary greatly from person to person so does the subsequent treatment, and generally there are only four forms of treatment recommended by medico’s, they being; Avoid the trigger factors if you have previously identified them: pain medication; preventative medication and then non-drug treatment such as yoga, hypnotherapy etc
People get to recognize their own ‘triggers’ that can cause the onset of a migraine and try to avoid them as much as possible. Common triggers can include food, such as chocolate, cheese and alcohol, hormonal changes such as the menstrual cycle and emotional stress or fatigue.
Headaches, particularly migraines are complex conditions and because the exact causes cannot be identified medically, it makes treatment and prevention difficult; however, headache & migraine treatment in North Sydney, Gladesville, Crows Nest and Mosman Spine and Health Centres is certainly alleviating symptoms for a lot of clients.
A major reason Adam and his team are so successful in treating headaches and migraines at their North Sydney Gladesville, Crows Nest and Mosman Spine and Health Centres is their focus on reversing forward head posture. Adam states that a lot of his clients who suffer bad headaches and migraines, get great relief after their posture has been restored to normal.
