- Headaches that show up several times a week — and you've started expecting them?
- Tension that builds at the base of your skull and wraps around your head?
- Migraines with light sensitivity, nausea, or vision changes that wipe out your day?
- Neck stiffness and tight shoulders that arrive right before the headache does?
- Pain that flares after long hours at a screen, desk, or steering wheel?
- Jaw clenching or teeth grinding that makes everything worse?
- Poor sleep, low energy, or a short fuse because your head never fully clears?
- Reaching for pain relievers more often than you'd like to admit?
- Been told it's just stress — and nothing has actually changed?
Your upper neck and nervous system may be driving it — and there is often a structural reason why.
The Threefold Approach
How Chiropractic Care Relieves Headaches
Most headache care manages the symptom. Specific chiropractic care restores balance to the structure of your spine and to the nervous system that controls every aspect of your body.
The Upper Neck Connection
The top of your neck is dense with nerves that share pathways with the head and face. When those vertebrae lose their normal position and motion, the brain receives scrambled signals — and headaches are often the result.
Tension, Cervicogenic & Migraine
Tension headaches, cervicogenic headaches, and migraines each behave differently. We identify which pattern you're actually dealing with instead of treating every headache the same way.
Comprehensive Consultation & Exam
A thorough review of your health history, a physical exam, nervous system scans, and postural screenings — so the plan is built on findings, not guesses.
Posture, Screens & Stress Load
Forward head posture, long screen hours, and an overloaded stress response keep the muscles of the neck and jaw on high alert. We address the daily inputs, not just the flare-up.

Common Questions
Everything you might be wondering.
Can a Chiropractor Help With Headaches and Migraines?
Yes. Many headaches — especially tension and cervicogenic headaches — originate in the joints, muscles, and nerves of the upper neck. Specific chiropractic adjustments restore normal motion and reduce nerve irritation, and many migraine sufferers report fewer and less intense episodes with consistent care.
What Causes Most Headaches?
Common drivers include upper neck joint restriction, forward head posture from screens and desk work, muscle tension through the neck, shoulders and jaw, poor sleep, dehydration, and an overloaded stress response. A thorough exam helps us determine which of these are at play for you.
How Do I Know if My Headache Is Coming From My Neck?
Cervicogenic headaches often start at the base of the skull and wrap forward, tend to affect one side, and get worse with certain neck positions or after long hours at a screen. Neck stiffness that shows up right before a headache is another strong clue.
When Should I Be Worried About a Headache?
Seek immediate medical attention for a sudden, severe headache, a headache with fever and a stiff neck, one that follows a head injury, or one with confusion, weakness, vision loss, or difficulty speaking. Any headache that is new, worsening, or persistent deserves to be assessed by a provider.
How Many Visits Before I Notice a Difference?
It depends on how long the pattern has been in place and what the exam shows. Many patients notice a change in frequency or intensity within the first few weeks, and we track your progress so you can see real change rather than guessing.
Is Chiropractic Care for Headaches Safe?
Yes. We use gentle, specific techniques chosen for your body and findings, and Dr. Martin cares for infants, children, adults, and expecting mothers. Your first visit includes a full evaluation before any adjustment is made.
