We know how difficult persistent headache pain can be. Dr. Vinick and our staff have worked with many men and women in our Redondo Beach chiropractic practice, and we've had great success in helping folks reduce their headache pain.
A 2016 research paper verifies what we see in our office. In this study, the authors started with 110 patients who were suffering with 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 report found that the individuals 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 outcomes 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. Vinick a call today at our Redondo Beach office at (310) 375-4325. We're here to help get you out of pain.
