Headaches & Migraines — There's Often More Going On Than You Think

Headaches are one of the most common complaints we see — and one of the most under-investigated. Many people manage them with medication for years without ever finding out why they keep coming back.

At Cannon Hill Family Chiropractic, we take a different approach. Rather than focusing on the headache itself, we assess the whole body to identify where function has broken down and what may be contributing to the problem.

Why Headaches Keep Coming Back

Recurring headaches — including tension headaches and migraines — often have a musculoskeletal or neurological component that goes unaddressed. The upper neck in particular has a well-documented relationship with headache patterns, and dysfunction in this area may be a contributing factor for many people.

NIP allows us to assess joint movement and muscle function systematically, identifying areas that aren’t working as they should — and correcting them gently, without manipulation or cracking.

A Gentle Approach — No Cracking, No Twisting

NIP corrections are applied by hand in a neutral, comfortable position. There’s no high-velocity manipulation, no twisting of the neck, and no cracking of joints. Many patients — including those who’ve been nervous about chiropractic care in the past — find the experience surprisingly gentle.

Who We Commonly See

Have chronic or recurring tension headaches

Have been told nothing is structurally wrong
