Headaches Are More Than “Just Stress”
Headaches can start small, then slowly take over your day.
Some people deal with a dull pressure. Others get sharp, pounding migraines that force them to stop everything.
A lot of patients we see in Stillwater say the same thing:
“It just keeps coming back.”
That usually means something deeper is being missed.
Common Headache & Migraine Symptoms
Headaches and migraines can show up in different ways depending on the cause.
Common symptoms include:
Dull Pressure
Dull, constant pressure around the head
Tightness
Tightness in the neck and shoulders
Eye/Temple Pain
Pain behind the eyes or temples
Sensitivity
Sensitivity to light or sound
Nausea
Nausea or dizziness
Throbbing Pain

Headaches that start at the base of the skull and move forward.
If your headaches are frequent or getting worse, it’s worth figuring out why.
What Causes Headaches and Migraines?
Most headaches are not random. They are tied to how your body is functioning.
Many headaches actually start in the neck, even if the pain is felt in the head.
Common causes include:
- Neck tension and poor posture
- Long hours at a desk or screen
- Stress and muscle tightness
- Previous injuries (including whiplash)
- Spinal joint restriction in the neck
- Nerve irritation
- Poor sleep habits
- Dehydration or lifestyle triggers
How Chiropractic Care Helps Headache & Migraine Relief
Chiropractic care focuses on how your spine, muscles, and nervous system are working together.
At My Health Solution, we look for what is triggering your headaches, not just where it hurts.
Spinal Adjustments
Restoring motion in the neck and upper spine can reduce tension and improve how signals travel through the nervous system.
Muscle & Tension Relief
Tight muscles in the neck, shoulders, and upper back are a major contributor to headaches. We help reduce that tension and improve movement.
Posture & Movement
Daily habits like screen time and sitting posture can keep headaches coming back. We help correct the patterns that are feeding the problem.
When Headaches Are Coming From the Neck
A large percentage of headaches are actually cervicogenic headaches.
That means they start in the neck and refer pain into the head.
This is common if you:
- Sit at a desk most of the day
- Look down at your phone often
- Have had a past neck injury
- Wake up with stiffness in your neck
If your headaches start at the base of your skull or come with neck tightness, this is often the missing piece.
