Headaches are Not Normal

Headaches are the body’s warning signal-telling you that something is wrong. Almost everyone can get a headache once in a while. It’s when you get them regularly that you need to take action.

Causes of Headaches

Headaches have a cause. They may be triggered by stress, but often the headaches are caused by misaligned bones in the neck, known as a subluxation. These bones may become misaligned from an automobile accident, a fall, or even by persistent poor posture. Nerves can become irritated and muscles can tighten, which affects circulation and causes your head to ache. Headaches can even be caused by problems in the pelvis or lower back, just as the foundation affects a building.

Painkillers Don't Work

If your headache is caused by a bone misalignment problem, drugs like aspirin, Tylenol, Advil, or Motrin will not cure it. Your headache will still be there even though the pain killer doesn’t allow you to feel it.
