HOW TO STOP A HEADACHE with ChiroMom adjustments

If TRUST YOUR INTUITION whispers that the upper neck is the root of the headache (as it often is), then proceed with the instructions below. By the way, you can adjust any vertebrae in the neck with these techniques.

1. LOCATE AND FEEL THE SUBLUXATION (What is a subluxation? CLICK HERE)

A. YOUR POSITION: Hold and support your loved one's forehead with one hand. Use your fingers and thumbs to gently press into the muscles of the top of the neck just where they attach at the base of the head itself.

B. TOUCH & FIND: Feel around and you will usually find 2 or 3 tight, tender spots. (See diagram to the left.) Pressing on those spots may even increase the headache pain -- that's good! Don't press too hard, but don't stop.

C. PRESS TRIGGER POINTS: While you are there, put light pressure on each one for 5-15 seconds -- going from one to the other in succession. This will stimulate circulation, bring in oxygen and nutrients, and flush out waste products.

D. CHECK MOVEMENT: Nod her head slowly then turn it from side to side while you press carefully on the tight, tender points. Can you feel with your fingers any places where a spinal bone (vertebra) seems to be rigid, locked up, not moving freely? That is a subluxation. (What is a subluxation?

2. ADJUST THE SUBLUXATION
A. MOVEMENT: For 30-40 seconds put light pressure on that rigid, "stuck" area while you gently move the head back and forth, side to side, and turn it left and right to "unstick" it. Softly nurture normal motion into the joint to allow normal nerve function. (You may hear a little "click" which means the joint has freed up, but it isn't necessary.)

B. HEALING INTENTION: Pour your love in.

C. STOP: You have given a gentle ChiroMom adjustment. Leave it alone.

We love you, but you will never be the clinical equal of your doctor of chiropractic (DC). She has 6 years of specialized college training, plus hundreds of hours of post-graduate seminars and other study. He witnesses healing miracles every week, almost every day. As a result, the chiropractor's knowledge, skill and FCB (faith, confidence and belief) will always be higher than yours. Finally, by adjusting more people in a week than you will in a year, the chiropractor's skills are constantly being refined to a level that you will never match.

You CAN provide routine chiropractic first-aid and maintenance ChiroMom adjustments to your loved ones that will add life to their years and years to their lives. Your healing hands, loving heart, and thoughtful intuition are better than drugs. Ask for regular guidance from your doctor of chiropractic (DC) if possible. Take your loved ones in for regular check-ups -- and if your loved one does not respond quickly to your ChiroMom adjustments and home care, take her to the chiropractor who knows how to turn the lights on even brighter.

3. WHAT TO EXPECT:
Usually within 3 minutes your loved one will notice an improvement. It may even be an instant "miracle cure" -- but don't count on it. Over the following minutes most or all of the headache will ease as healing flows from above-down, inside-out. You will be excited. However, you may have to check and adjust for weeks in order to fully correct the underlying causes.

Sugar causes severe headaches in some people. In very rare instances, headache indicates serious trouble within the head itself. Your family chiropractor (DC) is fully trained to help you find and correct the cause of persistent health problems.
