Normal Headaches in Brighton

For a video on this subject check out:  http://youtu.be/x6L1lsWRg9U 

Just the other day, we had a patient come in thinking that headaches were a normal part of life.  That speaks a lot about how unhealthy we have become as a community.  She couldn’t be more wrong, but she didn’t know it.

Even though, headaches may be a common problem in our area, they are definitely not normal.  It would be like saying, having a heart problem would be normal because it is the leading cause of death in the US.  There is nothing normal about a heart problem or a headache.  Both indicate a health problem.

If you suffer with more than zero headaches a year, you are not normal.  Yes, we said zero as in the number 0.   It is normal to be working so well that you do not have a single headache a year.  Anything more indicates a problem.  This may sound far fetched to those of you who suffer daily headaches.  Would you rather have a headache a day, or none at all?

Headaches are your body’s way of telling you that it doesn’t appreciate how you have been treating it. If you didn’t change the oil in your car, it would trigger the “engine oil low” light. How you handle it is up to you. You could take some tape and cover up the light, or find someone who could help you correct the problem.

There are five reasons people get headaches. Every one of them involves the bones of the upper neck. If you were ever in a car accident over 8.2 miles an hour, there was enough forces to potentially shift something out of alignment in your spine. By the way, you are traveling up to 21 m.p.h. when you fall down on the ice.

We know you aren’t reading this because what you are doing for your headaches is working for you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be interested in what we have to say.

Take a different approach towards your headache.

You should not have a headache every day/week/month.  You can live your life and go back to doing what you want to do.  You simply need to change how you have been approaching the headaches.
