What Is a Tension Headache?
I remember working with a client who had to put his whole degree on hold because his tension headaches interfered so badly with his life. So, I can personally resonate with how much these headaches can interfere with life.

Conditions
What Are Tension Headache Symptoms?

- Restricted neck movement and pain
- Reduce motion of the spinal neck joints.
- Mild to moderate pain that is not worsened by physical activity
- Difficulty concentrating
- Irritability or fatigue

What Causes Tension Headache?
- Physical: such as poor posture, being in static positions, to much physical activity, neck injuries, muscle strain, arthritis of the neck, injured discs of the neck, sinus issues, jaw or dental problems and eye strain.
- Mental/Emotional: Stress and Anxiety, Lack of rest and recuperation, Disturbed sleep.
- Chemical: is a big one also with skipping meals, dehydration and certain foods and drinks like caffeine, alcohol, and processed food with MSG or high in nitrates, so anything smoked can trigger tension headaches.
What To Do When Tension Headaches Don’t Subside?
- Go to work or perform your job
- Drive your car or go to the shops

Natural Safe Effective Tension Headache Treatment
The Potential Hidden Dangers Of Treating Tension Headaches With Medications
But even then, you’re told the only option you have for true relief is increasingly stronger medications.
You’re tired of reviewing all the self-help options; you’ve exhausted the list of possibilities, so you contacted your GP, who may have referred you to a specialist.
The main reason is that the underlying cause of cervicogenic dizziness can vary widely from person to person, making the source more difficult to pinpoint without a specialist.
So you either walk away with a vague diagnosis or simple directions to “just take these medications and try this exercise.” This inevitably leads to being prescribed stronger medications But continuously taking painkillers can set off an entirely new wave of health problems.
Such as:
- Medication overuse headaches
- Brain impairment
- Fatigue
- Depression
- Sleep disturbances
- And More
The key to avoiding these potential complications is to seek out the root cause and correct it without relying solely on medication.
Which is exactly what we can offer you.
