Chronic headaches accompanied by tension get the most relief from a combination of regular gentle chiropractic treatment of the upper cervical spine, cranial adjustments and sedative herbs (Passion flower, St. John’s Wort, Valerian) and an anti-inflammatory (feverfew, meadowsweet, willow bark) and an antispasmodic (cramp bark, wild yam, passionflower). Vascular headaches respond well to stimulants (Gingko, nettle, peppermint). Migraine headaches also respond well to vitamin B2 and Magnesium daily.
