Misalignments in the spine, especially in the neck, can affect nerves, muscles, and blood flow. This tension often contributes to different types of headaches. Chiropractic care helps address the root cause by improving mobility, releasing muscular stress, and supporting better alignment.

Chiropractic adjustments may help by:

• Relieving neck and shoulder tightness

• Improving spinal motion and alignment

• Reducing pressure on nerves

• Supporting better posture and circulation

• Helping regulate the nervous system

Chiropractic care is helpful for many headache types, especially when they are linked to the spine or nervous system. These include:

• Tension headaches from stress or poor posture

• Cervicogenic headaches originating in the neck

• Migraines that may benefit from improved nervous system function

• Postural headaches from screen time or long sitting

• Headaches related to old injuries or muscle imbalances

We assess each case individually and adapt treatment based on how your body responds.

At Advantage Chiropractic, your chiropractor may use a range of techniques to support relief and recovery, including:

• Cervical and upper spine adjustments

• Trigger point or soft tissue release

• Jaw and shoulder muscle work if relevant

• Postural guidance and ergonomic support

• Breathing and mobility strategies to reduce tension

All care is customised to your comfort level, lifestyle, and overall health picture.

No referral is required. If your headaches are connected to an injury, such as a fall or strain, we can help file your ACC claim directly from our clinic. We also coordinate care with GPs and other health providers when necessary.

Chiropractic may help if you:

• Feel pain starting at the base of the skull or top of the neck

• Notice tightness across your shoulders or jaw

• Spend long hours sitting, driving, or at a screen

• Experience frequent or recurring headaches

• Want a non-medicated way to support long-term relief

Many of our patients also find they sleep better, move easier, and feel more focused as their symptoms improve.
