Headaches, Pinched Nerves, and Chiropractic

San Francisco Chiropractor Comments:

I know first hand how bad headaches can be. I was introduced to chiropractic because of migraine headaches. I started having migraines when I was about 22 years old. They progressively got worse...I even had a brain scan to see if there were any tumors. I actually became bed ridden for a month, because the pain was so intense.

Then, I developed an allergic reaction to the Percodan medication I was taking, and ended up in the hospital for about a week. It was quite a ride...considering the fact that prior to this, I was working out 4-5 times a week with weights, and running every day. None of the doctors could figure out what was going on.

Then, a friend recommended that I see a chiropractor. At this point I would have tried anything. So, I made an appointment and went in. The chiropractor told me I had pinched nerves in my neck, from vertebral subluxations and disc degeneration.

He said it may have started when I was younger...as I was in a pretty bad auto accident when I was 10 years old. Then, there was the stress from my new job as a stock broker. He said all these things can cause the bones to lose their normal position, and pinch the nerves the neck bones protect when they are where they are supposed to be.

So, he recommended chiropractic adjustments over a 3 month period...and the rest is history. Sure, the problem did not go away over night...but over a period of 6-8 weeks, it slowly got better. Everyone was amazed...including me...enough to want to become a chiropractor. 

Here we are...25 years later...and I can't remember the last time I had a migraine headache. And...over the years I have helped hundreds of Bay Area patients with headaches due to pinched nerves and subluxations...it's the missing link for a lot of people...maybe you too.
