Bottom
Line:
Waking
up with a headache or consistently getting one by the end of work each day is
not fun (or normal). Headaches can be caused by a variety of factors, none of
which are a shortage of medication in your body! As a matter of fact, if you
have been relying on drugs to find relief day after day, there is a variety of
new research that encourages you to reconsider.
Why
it Matters:
Relying
on medications to find relief each and every day places an enormous amount of
strain on your liver and other internal organs. What’s more, researchers have
found that a common “side” effect of many popular headache medications is…more
headaches! And if that wasn’t enough to encourage you to think differently
about how to treat your headaches, new research has found an increased risk of heart
attacks in people who had taken NSAIDs (or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs). It’s easy to see why our firm belief is that the best way for most
people to find relief from their headaches is through natural healthcare such
as combination of Chiropractic and light stress-relieving exercise like yoga.
- Headache medications often
have dangerous side effects.
- Research has shown little to
no evidence that such drugs are effective at treating headaches.
- In a recent study, over 30% of
participants saw a 100% improvement in the frequency and severity of their
headaches after receiving Chiropractic care.
