Every migraine chiropractor in Redwood City helps patients get headache relief naturally. According to a report by The News-Press, almost 20 percent of chronic headaches have to do with problems related to the neck. It may be a real shocker for many people. This particular kind of headache is called a cervicogenic headache. Also, not only is the neck involved but posture as well. Many headaches, including migraine headaches, cause burning pain due to sensitive structures within the neck, becoming pinched, strained, or out of position.
There is a high possibility that your activities contribute to your neck problems. Your daily routines and actions included. For instance, if you sit in front of your work station for prolonged periods, you can damage your neck due to poor posture. How so? Likely, your keyboard, chair, monitor, and desk are not ergonomically optimized. You may also neglect to remember taking a break every 30 minutes from staring at your computer monitor.
When you’re at home, there is also the tendency to binge-watch your favorite shows or do movie marathons. Whenever you use your tablet or phone, you crane your neck downward at an awkward angle without realizing it. Combinations of these things contribute to damaging the neck, more than most people realize.
Do your best to improve your posture. Doing so will help reduce your headaches and even migraines. Remember to be conscious of keeping the proper posture at home or work. Whenever you use your phone, tablets, or other hand-held gadgets, keep it propped on a stand and positioned well so that you are not leaning down awkwardly for prolonged periods. Also, keep an ergonomically focused workstation. Furthermore, take at least one minute of break time from sitting too long daily, and do some stretches.
