Tension Headache in Ypsilanti, 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.

Why Ypsilanti Residents Choose Us
Effective tension headache treatment eliminates both the pain and its mechanical causes. Headache frequency decreases dramatically as we release chronic muscle tension and correct cervical dysfunction. Intensity reduces when headaches do occur. The tight-band sensation around your head resolves as muscle tension releases. Neck and shoulder pain that accompanied your headaches also improves. Medication needs decrease as structural corrections prove more effective than symptom suppression. Stress management becomes easier when you're not constantly fighting headache pain. Work productivity increases as headaches stop breaking concentration. Sleep improves when tension no longer builds throughout the day. The drug-free approach means you avoid rebound headaches from medication overuse. Prevention strategies help you maintain improvement. Most importantly, tension headache relief eliminates the exhausting, persistent pain that had been draining your energy and limiting your ability to focus on work, relationships, and activities you value.
