Tension Headache: Many people suffer from this type of headache, in fact more than any other type of headache. It is often described as pressure at the front or temple area of the head, similar to the feeling of your head being squeezed in a vice.

Cervicogenic Headache: This is the type of headache that chiropractic can help the most, although most headaches can be helped to some degree if there is nerve involvement. Cervicogenic headaches are often thought of and felt in the head, but the problem is actually a neck issue that refers pain to the head.
