Early diagnosis and treatment are important in identifying a serious underlying cause for your headache. In most cases, an in-depth history and physical examination can help determine if your symptoms are related to an easily treated problem, or if it is more serious. At Wellness Within we use many different tests to evaluate and reproduce the symptoms of your headache to help develop a specific management plan for your condition.
At Wellness Within Chiropractic Center our main focus is the treatment and prevention of Migraine headaches, and blood pressure is one of many parameters we look at when we monitor a patient’s health status.
The iHealth blood pressure monitoring system utilizes the latest technology in evaluating a patient’s heart rate, blood pressure and pulse wave. This system uses an iPad interface that provides fast and accurate results.
While blood pressure is an important measurement we monitor, irritation to the spinal nerves and the brain stem is our primary concern. Nerve tissue in the upper cervical spine that experiences irritation is often responsible for directly affecting blood pressure and is also a known cause of migraines.
Schedule an appointment today to find out if chiropractic adjustments may help lower your blood pressure or treat your migraines.
