Chronic Headaches: What’s Really Going On

If you’re one of the millions suffering from chronic headaches—whether it’s a migraine or a cervicogenic headache (neck-related)—you know how life-altering they can be. The pain can be sharp, throbbing, and sometimes even debilitating. But did you know that many chronic headaches don’t start in the brain? In fact, they often stem from issues in the neck or spine. Understanding the root cause is the first step toward finding relief.


What Causes Chronic Headaches?

Chronic headaches are often triggered by underlying problems in the cervical spine (neck area) or muscular tension around the neck and shoulders. For example:

  • Cervicogenic Headaches: These types of headaches occur when the neck joints or muscles become irritated or inflamed, sending pain signals to the brain. Often, it’s a result of poor posture, whiplash, or spinal issues.
  • Migraines: Though migraines have complex triggers (including genetics, environmental factors, and diet), the muscles and nerves in the neck can play a major role. Tightness or misalignment in the cervical spine can lead to increased migraine frequency and intensity.

While stress, hormonal imbalances, and dietary triggers can also play a part in migraines, neck-related issues are a significant cause that often gets overlooked.
