Research Reveals Chiropractic Can Lessen Cervicogenic Headaches in Noblesville

We know how difficult long-term headache pain can be. Dr. Dahlager and our staff have worked with many men and women in our Noblesville chiropractic office, and we've had great success in helping folks lessen their headache pain.

Research Supports Chiropractic Therapy Helps With Cervicogenic Headaches

A 2016 research paper confirms what we see in our office. In this report, the authors started with 110 people who were suffering from headaches that originated in the cervical spine. 58 of these patients were given a series of neck adjustments; 52 were given some stretches and exercises. The treatment period for both groups was four weeks.

The paper found that the patients who received cervical and thoracic spinal adjustments "experienced significantly greater reductions in headache intensity, disability, headache frequency, headache duration, and medication intake as compared to the group that received mobilization and exercise."

The study also found that these results were maintained at the three-month follow-up exam.

Chiropractic is a safe and effective way to treat chronic headache pain, back pain, neck pain, and many other health conditions. If you're tired of suffering, give Dr. Dahlager a call today at our Noblesville office at (317) 214-7218. We're here to help get you out of pain.
