Another headache. You’ve cancelled plans with friends at the Round Rock Outlets, called in sick to work, and spent countless evenings in a dark room waiting for the pain to pass. Medication offers temporary relief, but the headaches keep coming back.
What’s Really Behind Your Headaches
You may not realize it but many headaches start in your neck, not your head. Cervicogenic headaches develop when misaligned vertebrae irritate nerves and create spasms in your skull’s blood vessels. These structural problems won’t resolve on their own, no matter how many pills you take.
Dehydration, blood sugar fluctuations, and sinus pressure also trigger headaches. Some local residents deal with TMJ disorders that radiate pain throughout their head and face (often mistaken for migraines or tension headaches).
The Gonstead Difference for Headache Relief
Dr. Bolden Harris uses specialized techniques that differ significantly from what you might see online. His approach focuses on precision rather than force.
This gentle method addresses the root cause while avoiding the risks associated with aggressive manipulation.
Beyond Standard Adjustments
Comprehensive headache care means addressing multiple contributing factors. Spinal adjustments restore proper nerve function. Specialized cranial work improves sinus drainage through the Eustachian tube, reducing pressure buildup that creates pain. TMJ treatment targets jaw dysfunction when that’s contributing to your symptoms.
Some patients benefit from shockwave therapy for particularly stubborn conditions.
Results That Often Surprise Patients
Dr. Harris has seen remarkable responses across all age groups, from stressed college students to young children dealing with pain-related conditions. One unforgettable case involved a young boy with a severe ear infection who arrived screaming in pain. After a gentle neck adjustment, he had stopped crying before reaching the car, fell asleep on the drive home, and his ear infection cleared surprisingly quickly.
Younger patients often experience faster relief because their bodies respond more readily to correction before chronic patterns set in.
Stop Managing and Start Healing
Why continue masking symptoms when you could address what’s actually causing your headaches? Lasting relief comes from correcting the underlying structural and functional problems, not just suppressing pain signals.
