Keep reading to learn more about our all-natural remedies for headaches and migraines with chiropractic care in Medford, NJ.

Chiropractic Care

Stress and tension headaches can occur when your body and spine are out of alignment. Chiropractic adjustments are a non-invasive, gentle way to realign your spine and restore balance to your body. Chiropractic adjustments can also relieve cervicogenic headaches, which occur after a neck injury or nerve damage in the neck.  

Acupuncture Therapy

Acupuncture therapy is a form of ancient Chinese medicine that focuses on the belief that all parts of the body are connected through pathways. During acupuncture, our acupuncturist will insert thin, sterile needles into strategic areas of the body to clear these pathways and restore balance and harmony. Acupuncture can address headache and migraine pain as well as inflammation, sleep disorders, fatigue, stress, anxiety, tension, and other related symptoms.

Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression can offer relief for stress or tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches. During this treatment, you will lie on a traction table controlled by a computer. As the table moves, it slowly and gently stretches your limbs, muscles, joints, and spine, shifting everything back into alignment. This relieves pressure on vertebrae, nerves, and muscles and also alleviates stress, tension, inflammation, and pain.

Diet and Nutrition Counseling

Nutritional deficiencies and food sensitivities can trigger frequent headaches or migraines. Dr. O’Keefe has extensive education and experience offering diet and nutritional counseling. We will screen you for nutritional deficiencies, recommend vitamins and supplements, and help you make changes to your diet to reduce inflammation and stress and lower your risk of recurring headaches or migraines.
