Forehead or side-of-head pressure or tightness?
Throbbing sensations in your head?
Visual disturbances?
Heightened sensitivity to noise and/or light?

There are many types of headaches and migraines, so your chiropractor must confirm
an accurate diagnosis.
Tension headaches are common in people who spend a lot of time sitting, especially those who work in an office setting.

The migraine or headache pain often begins in the base of the skull or neck and then moves forward to the forehead.
Typically, this kind of headache presents as a persistent dull ache.
However, symptoms of migraines are frequently more intense.

Many individuals afflicted by migraines endure severe headaches accompanied by visual disruptions, heightened sensitivity to light and sound, and sometimes nausea.
Frequent migraine sufferers often describe a heightened awareness of an impending headache.
Due to the close connection between the nerves in the cervical spine and the head, numerous headaches may stem from dysfunction within the cervical spine, referred to as cervicogenic headaches.

COMMON CAUSES OF HEADACHES AND MIGRAINE:

Inadequate posture (head positioned forward of shoulders)
Extended periods of sitting
Dehydration
Trauma or incidents like whiplash
Stress
Dietary triggers (such as dark chocolate or red wine)
Cervical spine dysfunction
Occasional underlying disease or pathology
