Bad Posture Causes Headaches

Newport Beach Chiropractor | Postural Correction
If you suffer from frequent or chronic tension, sinus or just plain painful headaches, you’re not alone. The American Chiropractic Association claims that 9 out of 10 people suffer from headaches of varying degrees.  As a Newport Beach Chiropractor, I see patients everyday to alleviate the pain and symptoms associated with tension headaches. It is possible to live headache free and to achieve this without ANY medications or painful procedures and surgeries.
Spinal manipulation from gentle and effective chiropractic care can treat and alleviate the pain from tension headaches and headaches that originate in the neck. Beyond that, however, corrective care chiropractic, which aims to address the underlying structural dysfunction in the spine, can help to permanently erase the pain from headaches and neck pain for those who qualify.
Recent research published in the National Institute of Health’s PubMed stated that in a controlled study, those with severe and chronic migraine headaches were found to more likely to have cervical lordosis typically referred to as “Forward Head Posture”. Your posture has more affect on your health than you might think. At Wellness Choice, we refer to the posture as a “window to your health” as it is most often directly correlated with a patient’s overall condition. So what’s the bottom line? If you have bad posture, it most likely has affected your spinal structure, and if the structure of your neck is compromised, one of the most common symptoms, besides neck pain and shoulder pain, is chronic headaches and tension headaches.
If you have bad posture, even you are pain-free and think you’re healthy, there may be chronic underlying conditions caused by your permanently misaligned spine. We offer non-invasive, surgery-free, state-of-the-art postural correction that lasts a lifetime. Contact us today to find out if you qualify for care.
Newport Beach Chiropractor Dr. Nona Djavid’s Wellness Choice Center is  informed and knowledgeable about preventative health and wellness. In conjunction with a healthy lifestyle, nutrition and exercise, chiropractic care is a premiere holistic approach to overall well-being.

Low lifelong exposure to cigarette smoking associated with RA risk



Lifelong cigarette smoking was associated with the risk for developing rheumatoid arthritis, with an increased risk even at a low level of exposure and a plateau at 20 pack-years, according to recent study results.
Daniela Di Giuseppe, PhD student, division of nutritional epidemiology, Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, and colleagues conducted a search of Medline and Embase for relevant studies published from 1966 to October 2013. A dose-response, random-effects, meta-regression analysis was conducted on studies reporting relative risks or odds ratio estimates for the association between pack-years of cigarette smoking andrheumatoid arthritis (RA).
