Dealing with Constant Headaches in Lincoln?

There’s a big difference between the occasional headache and the debilitating impact of frequent headaches or migraines. When your head hurts, even simple tasks become overwhelming. You may feel irritable, exhausted, or like you’re just trying to make it through the day. Taking painkillers might offer short-term relief, but it’s rarely a lasting solution.

In many cases, the root cause of headaches is structural—often stemming from misalignments in the spine. These misalignments can irritate surrounding nerves and muscles, triggering chronic tension and pain. At Heiss Chiropractic in Lincoln, we help patients address the underlying cause of their headaches—not just the symptoms—through safe, natural chiropractic care.

Headaches and migraines vary from person to person. Some experience dull aches in a specific area, while others feel intense, throbbing pain. Migraines may also bring on nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and emotional symptoms like anxiety or depression.

If your spine—especially the cervical spine (neck area)—is misaligned, it can create pressure on nerves that control surrounding muscles. This often leads to:

• Tightness in the neck, jaw, or upper back

• Muscle tension that radiates upward

• Persistent or recurring headaches

Misalignments can result from traumatic incidents (like car accidents), but they often develop slowly over time. Poor posture at a desk, repetitive movements, or even sleeping in the wrong position can contribute to vertebral shifts that disrupt your body’s natural function.

Your spine plays a critical role in your overall health. When it’s out of alignment, it can affect how your body functions—especially your nervous system. Chiropractors are trained to identify and correct these issues through gentle, precise spinal adjustments.

At Heiss Chiropractic, we’ll begin with a detailed evaluation and medical history to determine whether your headaches are related to spinal misalignment. If so, we’ll create a personalized care plan that:

• Eases nerve pressure

• Relieves muscle tension

• Restores natural alignment

• Promotes long-term headache relief

Chiropractic care doesn’t just mask the pain—it works to resolve the root cause.
