Tension & Muscle Related Headaches
Tension headaches are the most common type. They often come from tight muscles in the neck, shoulders, and scalp. Poor posture, long hours at a computer, or stress can cause muscles to contract, leading to pressure and pain around the head and temples.
Spinal and Nervous System Factors
Misalignments in the cervical spine (neck) can irritate nerves or restrict blood flow to the brain and scalp. These imbalances can trigger headaches or set the stage for migraines. The nervous system plays a central role in pain signaling and sensitivity, so dysfunction can amplify pain perception.
Neurochemical and Vascular Causes
Migraines are strongly associated with changes in brain chemicals like serotonin, which affects blood vessel constriction and dilation. During a migraine, blood vessels in the brain may dilate abnormally, triggering throbbing pain. Certain triggers—like hormonal changes, bright lights, odors, or certain foods—can affect neurochemistry. Migraines often run in families, suggesting a genetic predisposition to how the nervous system and brain respond to triggers. Individuals with a family history of migraines are more sensitive to pain signals, stress, or environmental factors
