Headaches come in over 100 varieties, being grouped by cause and symptoms. Listed are some that are frequently tended by a Denver CO chiropractor:

Tension headaches: Commonly referred to as stress headaches, non-progressive headaches, chronic headaches, or daily headache these are common in adults as well as teens and are the most reported type of headache experienced. They cause a mild to moderate level of pain and will usually throb and come and go. They tend to coincide with stressful events so treating the tension with a good chiropractic massage can be a good way to combat the pain and ache.

Migraines: This classification generally manifests as a stabbing, throbbing, pounding pain accompanied by other symptoms. Their duration varies from a few hours, to days, or even weeks. They might even appear multiple times within a month and be debilitating. Side effects include stomach cramps, light and noise sensitivity, and motion sickness. These can be difficult to pinpoint but correcting spinal alignment is typically effective at reducing the severity and frequency of these headaches.

Cluster headaches: This type of headache is not too common and this is a good thing because this type of headache is considered by those who have suffered from them to be the single most intense and painful headache they have ever experienced. People describe it as a burning or piercing pain behind the eyes, and it can come and go or be constant.

Most people can not tolerate the intensity of a cluster headache. If they are able stand leaving the bed long enough to visit a chiropractic office, an spinal adjustment or therapeutic massage is often able to ease the pain and relieve some tension.

Sinus: This category generally appears when a person is suffering an allergy or congestion. The headaches commonly appear alongside the onset of Sinusitis, allergies, or infections. Additional symptoms include, cough, low grade fever, sneezing, runny nose, facial swelling, sore throat, and plugged ears. It surprises many people to discover that chiropractic techniques are effective at alleviating the pains and debilitating pressure that are typical of this condition.

Mixed headache syndrome: This is another dozy of a headache and it is also called transformed migraines by some people. A condition that is a mix of migraine and tension headaches; affecting both adults and children. It is one of the most commonly diagnosed headaches. They are usually short lived but severity, frequency, and intensity varies greatly form one person to the next. If you suffer from frequent headaches, a visit to your Denver, CO Chiropractor may be just what you need to feel better!
