Neck Pain & Migraines:
Fix "Tech Neck" For Good
Do you spend your day looking at screens? Chronic neck stiffness and tension headaches are signs of "Tech Neck"—a loss of the natural cervical curve. We help you restore alignment and eliminate headaches at the source.
Common Symptoms
📱 Tech Neck
Constant looking down creates 60lbs of pressure on your neck, leading to a "hump" at the base of the neck and chronic stiffness.
🤕 Tension Headaches
A dull, squeezing pain around the forehead or back of the skull, often caused by tight suboccipital muscles.
⚡ Migraines
Severe, throbbing pain often accompanied by nausea or light sensitivity. Misalignment in the upper neck (C1/C2) is a common trigger.
🖐️ Numbness in Hands
Pinched nerves in the lower neck can send tingling or weakness down into your arms and fingers.
"My migraines were debilitating, and my posture was a mess from working at a desk. Optimum Health treated the root cause in my upper neck (C1/C2). After 8 visits, my posture is visibly better, and I haven't had a major migraine in two months."
The Neck Restoration Protocol
Medication only masks the headache. We correct the mechanical and neurological issue causing it.
1. Upper Cervical Adjustments
We gently restore motion to "stuck" vertebrae in the neck. This immediately reduces nerve irritation that causes cervicogenic headaches and migraines.
2. Posture Correction & Soft Tissue
We treat the tight muscles (Traps and Levator Scapulae) that pull on your neck and provide specific drills to pull your head back over your shoulders, correcting "Tech Neck" posture.
3. Targeted Nerve Recovery (PEMF & Red Light)
We use PEMF Therapy and Red Light Therapy to reduce neurological inflammation and accelerate recovery of compressed nerves in the neck.
Common Questions
Is neck adjustment safe?
Yes. Chiropractic adjustments are extremely safe when performed by a trained professional. We always perform a thorough exam and history before any treatment.
Why do I get headaches after work?
This is classic "tension headache" behavior. As you fatigue during the day, your head drifts forward, increasing strain on the suboccipital muscles which pull on the skull.
