Migraines Gone!

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

“Before chiropractic, I suffered from daily migraines, which were incredibly painful.  I also had daily back pain.  It extended to my left arm and hand.  Since beginning the adjustments, I am virtually migraine free.  My general health and daily attitude are greatly improved.”  –Frank A.

Headaches From My Lower Back???

Monday, October 4th, 2010

At the Denver Headache Health Center, Dr. Visentin D.C. has found that headaches are very common. Over 90% of the population has experienced one at some point. They are a signal that something is wrong. In most cases, headaches are the result of spinal misalignments, emotional stress, physical trauma, chemical toxins or a combination of factors.

Most people react to headache with over-the-counter pain relievers. The constant use of drugs to treat headaches can come with serious consequences though. Kidney failure and liver damage have both been documented in patients that have used pain relievers excessively. What’s worse is that the underlying cause of the headache is never addressed.

Most patients that visit the Denver Headache Health Center are surprised to find that their headaches can be caused by problems in their lower back. A person’s spine supports the weight of their head. If there is a misalignment in the lower back, the upper spine has to compensate for that. The head will then shift off center as a result, causing a build up of stress that can lead to headaches. These misalignments – or “subluxations” – will affect muscles, nerves and even the blood flow to the head.

A subluxation occurs when a bone in the spine shifts out of place. This disrupts the communication between the brain and body by the central nervous system. Muscles can go into spasm and the spinal bones freeze up, cutting off adjacent nerves. This can cause disruptions in the control and regulation of vital bodily functions.

What Causes Subluxation?

The three basic causes are physical, emotional or chemical. Physical causes include accidents, slips or falls, repetitive motions and improper lifting. Emotions affect alignment as well, examples include; anger, stress and fear. Drugs, alcohol, preservatives in food, poor diet and environmental pollution are all chemical causes of subluxation.

Regular care is the Key

When there are disruptions in nerve communication, it can cause health problems beyond headaches and back pain. The nervous system controls every cell, tissue, and organ in the body. If there are clear pathways for the nerve impulses to travel through the spine, the body can stay balanced for optimal health. Chiropractic care is the only way to detect subluxations and address the cause of headaches in a natural, non-invasive manner.

Spinal problems aren’t the only cause of headaches, but a thorough chiropractic evaluation will uncover the most common cause of headache, (subluxation).

Some patients get immediate relief with chiropractic care. In others, the symptoms slowly resolve over weeks. It takes some time for patients that have experienced chronic headaches for many years. Chiropractic adjustments are the key to easing one’s suffering and raising the overall quality of life. If you are suffering from headaches, and are in the Denver area, contact Dr. Visentin, D.C. at the Denver Headache Health Center.  Call (303) 394-CARE (2273).

Headaches Gone!

Wednesday, September 8th, 2010

It seems unbelievable that a gentle adjustment to the spine could have such profound results with difficult and chronic cases of headache pain.  Patients find them so remarkable they write enthusiastic testimonials like this one.

“One week of treatments made such a difference in my life!  I am headache-free after years of chronic pain.  I can turn my head freely and my hearing has become clear and stayed that way.  I couldn’t believe it!  I can actually hear better, move better and I feel better!  I know that my life is better from chiropractic adjustments.” – Sydney C.

We’ve helped so many patients that we tend to take amazing results for granted.

Remember, waiting is dangerous and your problems may get worse without care.  You could feel great.  You have nothing to lose!  Call now (303) 394-CARE (2273), mention this article and receive a FREE examination without obligation.

Headaches Hidden Cause

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

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).

Blaming The Victim

Monday, August 9th, 2010

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).

3 Natural Ways to Get Rid of Your Headaches

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

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

1. 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. Fill it up and take it with you throughout your day. If you do not have a water bottle with measurements, there are 8 ounces in one cup of water. Divide your total daily ounces by 8 and that is how many cups of water you should be drinking everyday!

What Is A TMJ Headache?

Monday, July 12th, 2010

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.
