Why So Many Headaches Start in the Neck

Most of the headaches Dr. Gavric sees are cervicogenic headaches, which means they start in the neck. With today’s “text neck” posture, the normal neck curve flattens, putting extra strain on a strong band of tissue called the nuchal ligament at the base of the skull. That strain creates tightness in the neck, shoulders, and back of the head, often leading to a “tight headband” feeling or pounding pain.

These neck-based headaches can even set off migraines in some people. By improving posture, biomechanics, and spinal alignment, Dr. Gavric aims to address the source of that irritation, not just the symptoms.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help Your Headaches

Chiropractic care looks for misalignments in the spine that may be irritating nerves and overworking muscles. Dr. Gavric uses precise hands-on adjustments and gentle, low-force techniques that nudge the neck toward a healthier position without twisting or forcing the joints. Many patients find relief from headaches connected with tight, band-like pressure around the head, throbbing pain starting at the base of the skull, neck and shoulder tension from long hours at a desk or on devices, and headaches that seem to trigger or worsen migraines.
