Chiropractic Treatment

Massage of the neck and shoulder muscles can release tension, and a chiropractic adjustment can realign the vertebrae and release pressure in the spinal joints (face joints). MLS Laser therapy has special settings just for headaches rendering the trigger points at the base of the skull relaxed and released. MLS is entirely safe and can be applied both by the hand held Laser, or robotic application using the Ultra-Head for larger areas of the neck. Chiropractic can help eliminate the cause of your headaches rather than just offering a temporary symptom covering medication.
