The holidays are a wonderful time to celebrate with family and friends, but they can also be a time of stress. From shopping and preparing for holiday parties to traveling and dealing with family dynamics, the holidays can be tough on your body and mind.

One of the most common complaints our team sees this time of year is tension headaches and neck pain. Long hours spent hunched over a computer or phone, combined with the stress of the holidays, can lead to serious muscle strain. At Eastlake Chiropractic and Massage Center, we specialize in relieving tension headaches and neck pain from holiday stress.

How can chiropractic help with headaches and neck strain?

Many cases of headache and neck strain can be traced to muscle tension and poor posture. When your head is positioned forward and your shoulders are rounded, it puts a lot of strain on the muscles and ligaments in your neck. This can lead to headaches, as well as pain and stiffness in the neck and shoulders. Our chiropractors, Dr. Lincoln Kamell and Dr. Calvin Mulanax, can help by providing treatment that helps:

  • Reduce muscle tension: By gently manipulating the joints in your neck, our chiropractors can help to release the tension in your muscles. This can provide relief from headaches and neck pain.
  • Improve posture: Our chiropractors can also help to improve your posture by providing exercises and stretches that target the muscles in your back and neck. This can help to prevent future headaches and neck pain.
  • Enhance central nervous system function: When you're stressed out, your central nervous system (CNS) can become impaired. This can lead to a variety of health problems, including headaches and neck pain. Chiropractic care can help to enhance CNS function, lower rates of inflammation, and reduce stress in the body.
