Other methods for preventing tension headaches
Chiropractors at Komp Chiropractic and Acupuncture provide additional treatment options for tension headaches in addition to routine chiropractic adjustments.
Medications
When over-the-counter medications aren't enough to relieve tension, headache pain, prescription medications that reduce inflammation and help relax overly tight muscles may be beneficial.
Therapeutic massage
A therapeutic massage can help you relax your muscles, improve your blood circulation, and reduce overall tension in your body.
Myofascial release therapy
A Chiropractor uses a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) device to deliver electric pulses of energy into trigger points (tight, knotted muscles) to relieve pain and tension. Electrodes are placed on the skin's surface, and no incisions or invasive procedures are required for the treatment.
Exercising at home
In addition to on-site therapies, your Omaha Chiropractor can work with you on at-home exercises to relieve tension before it becomes serious and causes a headache. You should also prioritize taking at least one hour away from your electronics and desk work to stretch your spine and go for a walk.
