Jaw & TMJ Dysfunction in Pukekohe

Headaches and migraines can significantly impact your daily life, making it difficult to focus, work, or enjoy everyday activities. While headaches can have many causes, tension in the neck, poor posture, spinal misalignment, and stress are often contributing factors.

At Living Family Chiropractic in Pukekohe, we help you find relief from chronic and acute headaches, restore proper spinal function, and reduce the frequency and intensity of migraine attacks.  You may benefit from chiropractic care if you experience:

  • Frequent tension headaches or migraines

  • Pain or pressure at the back of the head or temples

  • Neck stiffness or tight shoulders

  • Nausea, sensitivity to light or sound associated with migraines

  • Headaches triggered by stress, posture, or jaw tension

Many headaches are linked to underlying musculoskeletal issues, particularly in the cervical spine (neck) and upper back. Addressing these areas can provide long-lasting relief.

How Chiropractic Care May Help

At Living Family Chiropractic, we take a holistic approach to managing headaches and migraines. Our care focuses on correcting spinal misalignments, improving posture, and reducing tension in the neck and shoulders - all common contributors to head discomfort. We use:

  • Spinal adjustments to restore alignment and relieve nerve pressure

  • Postural assessments to identify habits contributing to tension

  • Lifestyle guidance and exercises to reduce triggers and prevent recurrence

We also offer SOT cranial and sacral techniques, a hands-on approach that supports the nervous system and releases tension throughout the body.

By addressing the root causes rather than just masking symptoms, chiropractic care can help reduce the frequency and severity of headaches and migraines while supporting overall wellbeing.
