Headache Relief After a Car Accident

Headaches are a common experience after car accidents, often dismissed as a temporary side effect. At Counselman & Wade Chiropractic, we understand that persistent headaches can be a sign of a more serious underlying injury like whiplash or concussion. We offer effective headache treatment solutions for residents of Shawnee, Jackson, and Jefferson counties in Northeast Kansas, including Topeka, Perry, Meriden, Silver Lake, Auburn, Berryton, Grantville, and Tecumseh.

Understanding the Cause of Your Headaches

Chronic headaches are not a normal consequence of a car accident. They usually stem from specific injuries, often whiplash or concussions, that require proper diagnosis and treatment.

Whiplash Injuries

Whiplash injuries affect the cervical spine and the bones in your neck. The force of the accident can cause misalignment or inflammation in this area, leading to headaches. Proper whiplash treatment from a chiropractor can address these issues and alleviate your headaches.

Concussions

Concussions involve direct blows to the head, affecting the brain and potentially impacting the cervical spine and temporomandibular joint. Concussions can also cause headaches, and chiropractic care can be beneficial in addressing the underlying causes.

Chiropractic Care for Headache Relief

Our chiropractors take a comprehensive approach to diagnosing the root cause of your headaches. This includes reviewing your symptoms, and medical history, and performing various examinations. This thorough diagnosis ensures you receive targeted treatment for either whiplash or concussion, leading to lasting headache relief.

Benefits of Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care offers several advantages for treating accident-related headaches:

Non-invasive and drug-free: Chiropractic adjustments are gentle and do not involve medication, making them a safe and natural treatment option.

Addresses the root cause: Chiropractic care focuses on correcting underlying misalignments and inflammation, leading to lasting relief rather than temporary symptom masking.

Personalized treatment plans: Each patient receives a customized treatment plan based on their individual needs and injuries.
