Effective Headache Relief
Chronic Headaches Relief in Coralville, Iowa: Do you suffer from headaches? If so, you are not alone. Most Americans have suffered from occasional or frequent headaches at some point in their life.
Whether you suffer from tension headaches, migraine headaches, cluster headaches, stress headaches, anxiety related headaches, neck pain related or cervico-genetic headaches—we can help you find relief!
A common cause of headaches is from spinal bones in the neck that aren’t supporting the head properly. You might not notice your reduced ability to turn your head, but these subluxations affect nerves, muscles and even the blood supply to your head. Subluxations can often be the result of stress and bad posture which is why so many Americans who work at a desk all day report suffering from them. A subluxation is when one or more of the spinal bones is misaligned into an abnormal position causing irritation to the nerve structure and interference with the flow of nerve energy throughout the body.
Dr. Dillon Hammes, DC can help by performing spinal adjustments that remove any subluxations and stress on the spine. We can also offer advice on how to avoid getting these headaches in the future.

Chronic Headache Relief FAQ
Chiropractic care may be helpful for people experiencing several types of recurring headaches, including tension headaches, migraines, stress-related headaches, and headaches associated with neck pain. At Total Health Chiropractic, we evaluate each patient to help determine whether problems involving the neck, posture, or spinal alignment may be contributing to their symptoms.
Yes. Poor posture, particularly from spending long periods sitting at a desk or looking at computers and mobile devices, can place additional stress on the muscles and joints of the neck. This tension may contribute to neck discomfort and recurring headaches. Chiropractic care can address spinal and postural issues that may be associated with these symptoms.
Chiropractic care takes a non-drug approach that focuses on identifying musculoskeletal factors that may be contributing to headaches. When appropriate, chiropractic adjustments may be used to improve spinal function and reduce stress and tension involving the neck and surrounding structures.
If headaches occur frequently or are accompanied by ongoing neck discomfort, stiffness, or postural problems, a chiropractic evaluation may help determine whether musculoskeletal factors are contributing to your symptoms. Total Health Chiropractic in Coralville can evaluate your individual situation and recommend an appropriate course of care.
