Tension Headache in Salem, MI
Tension headaches feel like a tight band squeezing your head, creating dull, constant pressure that makes concentration difficult and drains your energy. Unlike sharp migraines, tension headaches persist as background pain that gradually wears you down throughout the day. They typically stem from muscle tension in your neck, shoulders, and jaw—often related to stress, poor posture, or cervical spine dysfunction. Over-the-counter pain relievers might help initially but lose effectiveness with frequent use, and you're left choosing between constant pain and constant medication. The truth is tension headaches have mechanical causes that medication cannot fix. Tight, stressed muscles pull on your skull and scalp, creating pain. Cervical misalignment creates muscle tension and nerve irritation that radiates into your head. Our treatment addresses these structural and muscular causes directly.
