Headaches are a reality that affect 9 out of 10 Americans, and a comprehensive U.S. Study reported that 10 million Americans suffer from moderate to severe disability from various forms of headaches. There are many contributing factors of headaches, but headaches are in no way normal.

MIGRAINES: Migraines affect about 10% of the population most being women. These headaches are caused by inflammation of arteries and blood vessels that surround the brain, squeezing until the brain hurts. Headaches of this type can be very debilitating, causing pain that lasts anywhere from a couple hours to several days. Migraines can also cause different autonomic responses, such as: Auras, nausea/ vomiting, and heightened sensitivity to light and sound.

SINUS: Your sinuses are air-filled cavities in the skull, if they are unable to drain properly they become inflamed. When your sinuses become inflamed this causes painful pressure in your head and symptoms of sneezing, wheezing, watery eyes, runny nose, etcetera.

TENSION: Tension headaches are the most common type of headache and come from inflamed soft tissue in the head and neck. These headaches can vary in intensity, anywhere from migraine like to mildly irritating.

HOW TO DEAL: Many people pop an Ibuprofen and call it a day, or lie down with a cold compress. For those with the more intense headaches these methods are not strong enough and they seek more invasive therapies like cortizone injections, muscle relaxers, and tranquilizers. Though contrary to popular opinion, headaches are not a result of an Aspirin shortage. There is a better way to fight headaches.

più essenziali toglie, lanciati.by researchers at the Duke University Evidence-Based Practice Center in Durham, NC, found that spinal manipulation resulted in almost immediate improvement for those headaches that originate in the neck, and had significantly fewer side effects and longer-lasting relief of tension-type headache than a commonly prescribed medication.” Spinal Manipulations are proven to decrease the frequency and intensity of the headache, because the majority of the time they are because of a misaligned spine. A large contributing factor is poor posture which places a lot of pressure on the structure and nerves. When the spine gets realigned it takes the pressure off the nerves allowing muscles to relax. Though not all headaches are caused by spinal misalignment, it is a good idea to consult a chiropractor before treating. The chiropractor will conduct a thorough examination process that includes physical, neurological, chiropractic and orthopedic tests that will help reveal the nature of your condition. X-rays may be necessary. If the chiropractor finds that it is a condition that they can help, they will put together a custom treatment plan for you, and if it is something they cannot help you with they will make the necessary referrals.

Notes from the Massage Therapist: Massage therapy and Chiropractic work well together and can help a person get the most out of their care. Massage can help most headaches by relaxing the neck, shoulders, upper back and even face muscles. Tension headaches are some of the easiest headaches for a massage therapist to address. Sinus headaches can help be relieved with facial massage opening those sinus cavities and therefore allowing them to drain. I can also show you a few techniques and stretches that you can do for self-care.

Patient Reviews

"My overall health has also improved because my allergies and my arthritis are also not as severe as they used to be. Dr. Stiles has always been very accommodating with her hours and appointments, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Over the years, I have recommended my sister, my best friend, my cousin and other friends to this office for chiropractic care."

-Anonymous

"Excellent patient care and a convenient location.  Dr. Stiles technique is gentle and effective.  The office staff is professional and flexible.  The office hours offer a wide array of times for busy working people.  I switched from a chiropractor that I loved for the location and have not lost anything in terms of service.  I highly recommend for pain management, maintenance and wellness services."

-Ruanda G.

"Not the typical doctors office.  Dr. Stiles & staff are friendly and are flexible with appointments. And my neck and my back feel great!"

-Kevin T.

"Dr. Stiles is very gentle and caring and helpful in explaining what was wrong with my neck and spine. She came up with a treatment plan for me for the next few months. I was re-examined a few weeks ago and showed a lot of improvement! All without surgery. I highly recommend this chiropractic office."

-Monique P.

"Everyone in the office is very nice and helpful. I started going to Dr. Stiles because I had vertigo for more than a year. My doctor just told me it would go away eventually and prescribed Dramamine (which just made me feel sick). I decided to try this method as a last effort to get rid of it and it's worked. I couldn't be happier with the results from my visits here. I would (and have) recommended her to friends and co-workers."

-Jennifer M.

"I've been seeing Dr. Stiles for the past 10 years and in that time, my sciatic nerve has stopped flaring up. I also have had no more middle ear infections or ringing in my ears. I first started going to Stiles Chiropractic for what I thought was the beginning of carpal tunnel syndrome, my wrists, hands and fingers were numb and tingling. After a few adjustments, I was feeling much better and have not had that issue since.

-Dee M.

"Dr. Stiles has been my chiropractor for almost a decade. Regular visits to Dr. Stiles help me prevent tension from escalating and causing severe, debilitating pain that I've had in the past. I used to "throw my back out" once or twice a year, resulting in my being unable to move for three or four days. With ongoing maintenance, I'm happy to say that that rarely happens anymore, and if it does, Dr. Stiles knows me well enough to help fix it right away."

-Cathy H.

"I see Dr Stiles every week for neck pain and she is amazing! She is very kind and responsive to her clients. Highly recommended."

-Samantha M.

"Dr. Stiles is stellar! I am a resident of Los Angeles and any time I'm in town this is my go to place for chiropractic. Dr. Stiles is very thorough and educated on every joint in the body. I feel at ease and in good hands and most importantly well-informed through our entire sessions. I always walk out feeling taller and poised with a healthy body!"

-Kaila H.

"Wonderful! Best Ever! – I have been to chiropractors throughout my life (good and bad ones) but I have had the best experience here with Dr. Tracey. She gave me a very detailed exam and took the time to go over my exam and explain a treatment plan that will help me feel better in the long run. And I am all about preventative maintenance! She also explained my adjustment so well, I didn't freak out. Her office is wonderful, Friendly and warm!!"
