Head
The head and neck are the most common symptoms when the body
is out of balance. When something is structurally wrong with the
body's balance, many times it results in pain in the head and neck.Many people have an unrealistic approach to pain; they consider it an enemy when, in many cases, pain is a friend. Pain is the body's alarm system telling us when something is wrong. Headaches Most approaches to headaches are designed to simply numb the pain, rather than address the cause. Migraines, toxic, digestive, allergic, visual, tension, and even sinus headaches or colds and flu can be treated by spinal adjustments. Using Kinesiology, Dr. Widen conducts an evaluation of the nervous system to find the reason the pain is present. Once the cause of the headache is determined, the pain can be eliminated by bringing the body back into balance with Chiropractic adjustments. Kinesiology aids Dr. Widen in identifying the type of headache so the cause can be treated, not the symptom. A tension headache, caused by a dysfunction of the spine and muscles immediately below the skull, can be eliminated by balancing the bony structures and muscles that support the spine. TMJ Many common causes of head and neck problems are caused by an incorrect bite. This can cause pain in the jaw joint, otherwise known as the TMJ joint. Frequently, this problem can cause headache, dizziness, ringing in the ears, and pain when chewing. Weakness in the hands and arms can also result from TMJ problems, as well as carpal tunnel symptoms. << Back to Health Concerns |
