Headaches: How to prevent them naturally

Many people today suffer from headaches, majority of which are MIS-LABLED migraine headaches because of the severity of the pain. Most headaches are in fact Tension or Suboccipital or Stress Headaches with the source of the pain coming from the back of the head where the head connects to the neck. Unfortunately our life style of using computers and seated positions contribute heavily to these types of headaches.
Solution: Chiropractic Adjustment which will bring the function back to the vertebral area in the region, taking away the tension caused by the muscles. In most cases, there is an immediate pain relief for the headache. Stretching is also very important and need to be specifically geared toward the very base of the neck. Proper positioning in front of the computer AND proper use of your pillow when sleeping are to be looked into as well.
Headaches take away fun out of life and can make one miserable so stop taking those quick fixes and look into a long term solution. BTW, if you suffer from chronic headache, talk to your chiropractor to get an MRI to rule out any thing serious like a tumor!!

Hope this helps and do know that you are in charge of your own health and life so start today.
