Headaches & Migraines can wreak havoc on a patient's life. The cause of certain migraines can be difficult to determine. Generally, migraines are thought to be most often affected by blood flow to the brain and tend to have a familial/hereditary link.
Headaches on the other hand are, generally, caused by muscle tension in the neck and back of the head. As we've all experienced headaches can strike anyone for a variety of reasons. Listed below are some common causes:
Stress/Muscle Tension
Postural Imbalances
Whiplash from Automobile Accidents
Sports Injuries
Dehydration/Poor Diet/Caffeine
