February 2026 Healthy News from Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation: A Gentle Path Toward Headache Relief

Struggling with nagging headaches or migraines in Carrolltown? Research shows that chiropractic care could be the drug-free solution you've been hunting for! Recent clinical practice guidelines have reported chiropractic treatment as a proven, effective approach for adults wanting drug-free solutions. (1) Whether your headaches are the result of neck tension, spinal misalignment, or nerve irritation, we chiropractors are specially trained to identify and manage any underlying structural issues at the root of your pain. Case studies describe successful conservative management of complex neck and thoracic conditions that instigate headaches (2), and gentle Cox® Technic (flexion-distraction) has demonstrated remarkable results—one newer case documented complete migraine resolution in a woman experiencing 10 headaches per month who had tried multiple medications without success; after just 13 sessions over six weeks, she reported significantly less pain, less migraine frequency, and reduced need for medication. (3) Together, we’ll create a chiropractic treatment plan just for you, offering you a realistic way toward lasting relief!

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Steven Baroody on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson  as he shares his relieving treatment for a patient with neck pan and headache using The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management.

CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Take an Active Role in Your Headache Relief

The best part? Relief isn't something that just happens to you—you can actively add to your own healing process! Research shows that combining professional care with self-management strategies produces the best outcomes for headache sufferers. A comprehensive systematic review found that exercise therapy places among the most effective interventions for cervicogenic headache (4), and clinical practice guidelines recommend therapeutic exercises you can perform at home as first-line approaches for persistent neck-related headaches. (5) Even more hopeful, emerging technologies like external vagus nerve stimulation are promising as adjunctive therapies that patients can use on their own to manage their symptoms. (6) By combining professional chiropractic care with focused exercises and innovative self-care tools, you're not just treating your headaches—you're empowering yourself to take control of your health and build lasting resilience!
