Denver Headache Health Center

Do you consistently feel a headache creep on in the mid afternoon while you are sitting at work, almost ready to go home, but not quite ready to leave? Does it make the rest of your afternoon at work miserable? Does it start as a slow pain progression from the back of your head, creeping up to where you know it will land just behind your eye and continue to pulse until you go to bed that night?

At the Denver Headache Health Center realize headaches are hard to live with, especially when you have work to finish and other things to focus on. Regardless of the severity, headaches can affect you and the people around you. Here are some tips to try to reduce your chance of getting that day-stopping headache:

If you’ve had trauma of any kind, get your spine checked.  Bones in the spine can be displaced and pinch nerves that cause headache.  Here is a patient’s testimonial this illustrates this fact.

“I was involved in a car accident several years ago that started a progression of regular headaches that got increasingly worse.  My debilitating migraines would last up to 2 days!  My physician took an M.R.I. and a cat scan but found nothing.  He prescribed painkillers to mask the problem.  That didn’t work, and neither did massage therapy, homeopathy, acupuncture, or physical therapy.  I started seeing Dr. V., and so far things are getting better by the week.  I’ve had only one migraine since starting care and my headaches have dropped from almost daily occurrences to maybe once a week.  I know I’m on the right track, as I feel better every day.  You too will feel better with Dr. V.!”  – Brian V.

All too often the real cause of headaches goes undetected.  Bones out of place in the neck create pressure on the nerves leading to severe headaches.  If you have a history of headaches and have lived with the problem using drugs to hide your pain, you owe it to yourself to get examined for the most common cause of headaches.  Get a chiropractor to check your spine for proper alignment.

Your problems may get worse without care.  With care you could feel better fast.  If we cannot help you, we will tell you so.  Call now for a FREE examination (303) 394-CARE (2273).

When doctors can’t help people they get frustrated and all too often, blame the patient.  It’s terrible when this happens because patients deserve better.  Here is a fascinating testimonial from a patient that was thrown out of many doctors’ offices.

“I have suffered from severe headaches and back pain for four years.  I was told there was nothing that could be done for me.  When I first came to see Dr. Visentin I had a migraine that was so severe that I was nauseous.  My doctors had refused to see me as of October and the pain was intolerable.  Since I have been seeing Dr. V., I have experienced pain-free days, which I have not experienced in four years and the improvements have happened in just a few weeks.  While other doctors have claimed that there is nothing they can do for me, Dr. V. has helped.  This is a breakthrough and I thank God for putting Dr. Visentin in my life.” – S. Salinas 

If your doctor refuses to even see you, or just doesn’t seem to listen, don’t give up hope!  You can get a proper examination to see if our techniques may help for FREE.  Mention this article and call (303) 394-CARE (2273).

Do you have chronic headaches that come at the most inconvenient times or worse, never go away? Settling for constant headaches or headaches that come and go is no way to live. In order to get long term relief, you have to go to the source. There are a lot of different types of headaches, caused by different things. Stress is probably one of the most common causes of headaches. Stress can cause tension headaches or bring on migraines. Postural stress can also lock up the joints in your neck and cause cervicogenic headaches, originating from your neck.

“Why did I wait, I can’t believe I lived with this pain so long.  All the time I was suffering I could have been feeling great.”  At Care Chiropractic, we hear these remarks so often, that we wonder why anyone hesitates to get care.  What we do works so well, it makes waiting seem pointless.  Here’s a letter from one of our many patients who suffered migraines for years.

“I had terrible migraines and sinus headaches along with mid back pain from being a nurse.  These migraines would stop me from doing my activities at work, caring for my children and housework.  I went to see Dr. V. and he gave me my life back.  He is wonderful.  I can enjoy my life again.” –M.M.

Sometimes we grow so used to hurting, we think it’s “normal” for us.  Our pain goes on and on until we accept it and see no other way.  This is terrible, and should never happen but it is a regular occurrence.  When people finally receive effective care at our center, it’s almost like a light bulb goes on above their heads.  They discover they can live a different kind of life and live pain-free for once and for all.

What are your chances of being headache free?  You will never know unless you call, (303) 394-CARE(2273).

In our Denver Headache Health Center we always promote these 3 natural and effective ways to help get rid of your headaches.

Drink plenty of water – Dehydration is often the cause of headaches. Before you reach for the bottle of Aspirin, make sure you are well hydrated! So how much water should you be drinking? Drink half your weight in ounces of water each day. For example, a 150 pound person would divide their weight in half and drink 75 ounces of water per day. One easy way to do this is to get a large water bottle with ounce measurements on the side. …Continue Reading

According to the American Dental Association about 60 million Americans have temporomandibular joint syndrome or TMJS.  The symptoms include headaches, sore jaw joint, difficulty chewing and talking.

Muscular and structural irregularities in the jaw caused by stress, trauma, and dental problems can aggravate the jaw joint.  The jaw is very sensitive because of the amount of nerves that go there. 

 Many of our patients swear by gentle adjustments to the jaw that actually relieve headaches.  To see if you qualify for this kind of care, call (303) 394-CARE (2273).  Adjustments realign the jawbone and create normal healthful movements.

Our results can be so dramatic for headache sufferers, I sometimes wonder why people hesitate to get care.

Below is a testimonial from one of our many patients who is now, headache-free.

“I suffered from headaches for a year.  These headaches were so severe they brought on vomiting episodes that lasted two days!  I sought help through general practitioners.  They prescribed migraine medicine that made my symptoms worse.  A friend told me about Dr. Visentin, and I went to see him as a last resort.  It turns out that my headaches were the result of subluxation in my neck area.  Subluxation means, bones out of alignment interfering with the nervous system.  After three adjustments, my headaches were gone and the vomiting episodes stopped.  I feel that I have more energy.  Thanks to Dr. Visentin.” – Lindsay O.
