Headaches

Headaches are one of the most common complaints that we hear from our patients, and although they can be caused by many different factors, mechanical problems in the neck and upper back tend to be a leading cause. This type of headache is called a tension headache, and chiropractic treatment can be very effective at alleviating and preventing them. At our office in Newport News, VA, Dr. Christopher Brill can provide you with spinal adjustments to effectively restore your neck and back to proper function to eliminate and prevent further pain.
 
Tension headaches are a result of muscle tension in the neck and upper back, which irritates the nerves that control blood flow to the brain. This can cause you to feel pain in your upper neck or the back of your head, as well as in your head’s frontal region, sinus region, top or sides. These headaches can present as a throbbing, as an ache or just as a constant pain. Spinal adjustments can relieve the pain by improving the alignment and movement of the cervical vertebrae in the neck and taking undue stress off the neck and back muscles. This then relieves the pressure and irritation that causes your headaches.
 
From car accidents to stress to poor posture, there are a variety of factors that can contribute to the type of spinal misalignment that interferes with the neck’s ability to function properly. Muscles in the neck and back can become tight from stress, work, lack of sleep, sinusitis or trauma, and this tightness can cause a subluxation, which then further increases muscle tension. Regular chiropractic treatment allows you to correct the damage done by daily stress and trauma and prevent tension headaches altogether.

Personal Injury

Here at Therapeutic Solutions LLC, we provide chiropractic care for many situations, including after a personal injury. A personal injury can occur from a variety of circumstances, ranging from a fall from a ladder or roof to chronic back or shoulder pain from moving “wrong” during sleep. Many of the injuries are similar to those experienced at work, except they are experienced outside of work.
 
With chiropractic care, we not only address the problem at hand, but work to improve the entire body. Our care focuses on the fact that all of the body’s systems are connected, so when one area is healed, the rest of the body soon follows suit. This is also why we like to perform adjustments for many of our patients, regardless of the injury. With an adjustment, we put the spine back into alignment, helping the entire body to improve.
 
We encourage patients to visit our practice not just to find relief for their injury, but to prevent more complications. Many times, ignoring a type of pain or trauma can worsen the condition, and cause more of the body to go into physical distress.
 
If you have had a personal accident, we urge you to visit us in Newport News, VA for treatment from Dr. Christopher Brill.

Migraines

For many, migraines feel worse than a severe headache. As our patients know, migraines cause debilitating pain, usually in the form of a pulsating or throbbing sensation on one side or both sides of the head. Many sufferers also deal with sensitivity to light and sound, nausea and vomiting.


Patients may experience an aura shortly before the migraine as a warning sign, which includes flashes of light and tingling in the arms or legs, but not always.


Aside from taking medications for migraines, there aren’t many ways to prevent them. However, here at Therapeutic Solutions, LLC, we provide chiropractic care that helps patients reduce the frequency and severity of their migraines. Some of our patients even report they hardly get them at all when they get regular treatments from Dr. Christopher Brill.


Chiropractic treatments that are effective at relieving migraines and preventing them include massage therapy, biofeedback and adjustments, which help balance the nervous system and provide overall health, which offers a lower frequency of migraines.


Contact our chiropractic office at 757-873-4131,e-mail drbrill.therapeuticsolutions@yahoo.com  or visit us in Newport News, VA for information about migraine treatments. Ask us about our same day appointments too!

Headaches

Headaches


Many of us are familiar with the inhibiting nature of headaches and migraines.  This is especially true for those that suffer on a regular basis.  Fortunately, there are ways to address the underlying cause of your pain and find lasting relief.  At Therapeutic Solutions LLC, we focus on correcting tension and misalignment in the upper back and neck, as these are the most common causes of chronic headaches and migraines.  Through chiropractic care, many patients have been able to find lasting and natural relief.


Traditional spinal adjustments and manipulations, stress relieving techniques, and other wellness therapies can all provide headache and migraine relief.  If you have been suffering from headache pain and you have not yet found a treatment that works for you, arrange an appointment at Therapeutic Solutions LLC.  We look forward to working with all of our patients to determine the underlying cause of your headaches and migraines so that you can finally find relief.
