According to WebMD, 45 million Americans suffer from chronic?headaches, and of them, 28 million suffer from migraines. Frequent headaches can interfere with your daily life including: going to work or school, spending time with family/friends, and participating in activities you love. I personally have family members that suffer from chronic headaches and I see how painful they are, therefore, I take necessary steps to prevent them from happening to me. I?believe in finding more natural ways to relieve and prevent ailments rather than taking over-the-counter medicine, which ironically have their own list of negative side effects (headaches being one of them). I am going to share with you the 7 tips that?help relieve/prevent headaches.Go to a Chiropractor. ?Find a good chiropractor, they locate and correct misalignments in your spine that are interfering with the ability of your central nervous system to keep you healthy. This nerve interference can be the cause of headache pain no matter what?type of headache?you have. A report released in 2001 by researchers at the Duke University Evidence-Based Practice Center in Durham, NC, found that spinal manipulation resulted in almost immediate improvement for those headaches that originate in the neck, and had significantly fewer side effects and longer-lasting relief of tension-type headache than a commonly prescribed medication.
