February 2026 Healthy News from Moriarty Chiropractic: A Gentle Path Toward Headache Relief

If you're one of those in Nashua struggling with tension-type or cervicogenic headaches—or even migraines—we have great news: there's new evidence that chiropractic care could be the relief you've been looking for! Recent clinical practice guidelines have established chiropractic treatment as a proven, effective path for adults wanting drug-free solutions. (1) Whether your headaches are the result of neck tension, spinal misalignment, or nerve irritation, we chiropractors are well trained to recognize and manage what's actually triggering your pain. Case studies show successful conservative management of complex neck and thoracic conditions that trigger headaches (2), and gentle Cox® Technic (flexion-distraction) has demonstrated remarkable results—one recent case documented complete migraine resolution in a woman experiencing 10 headaches a month who had tried multiple medications without success; after just 13 sessions over six weeks, she remarked that she had significantly less pain, decreased migraine frequency, and decreased necessity for medication. (3) Together, we’ll establish a chiropractic treatment plan just for you, offering you a sensible way toward lasting relief!

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Steven Baroody on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson  as he shares his relieving treatment for a patient with neck pan and headache using The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management.

CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Take an Active Role in Your Headache Relief

The greatest part? The journey to relief doesn't end when you leave the office—you have the power to actively participate in your own healing! Research shows that combining professional care with self-management strategies produces the best outcomes for headache sufferers. An inclusive systematic review found that exercise therapy ranks among the most effective interventions for cervicogenic headache (4), and clinical practice guidelines recommend therapeutic exercises you can do at home as first-line approaches for persistent neck-related headaches. (5) Even more hopeful, emerging technologies like external vagus nerve stimulation are showing promise as adjunctive therapies that patients can use on their own to manage their symptoms. (6) By mixing professional chiropractic care with focused exercises and innovative self-care tools, you're not just treating your headaches—you're allowing yourself to take control of your health and build lasting resilience!
