Headache Chiropractor in Virginia Beach

Frequent headaches or migraines interfering with your work or daily life? ProAdjuster Chiropractic Clinic in Virginia Beach may be able to help.

Many headaches — especially tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches — are connected to tightness and restricted motion in the neck and upper spine. Dr. Maggio uses gentle, technology-assisted chiropractic care to help address these contributing factors.

Not all headaches are the same. Common types that may respond to chiropractic care include:

• Tension headaches — Dull, pressing pain around the head and temples, often connected to muscle tension in the neck and shoulders
• Cervicogenic headaches — Headaches that originate from restricted motion or dysfunction in the cervical spine
• Headaches from poor posture — Tech neck and forward head posture place extra strain on the cervical spine, which can contribute to recurring headaches
• Post-accident headaches — Headaches following whiplash or auto accidents may be related to cervical spine stress

Headaches can have many contributing factors. Common causes include:

• Muscle tension and tightness in the neck and shoulders
• Restricted motion in the cervical spine
• Poor posture and forward head position
• Stress and fatigue
• Dehydration
• Eye strain from screen use
• Whiplash or injury from a car accident

Many patients with chronic headaches also report neck pain or stiffness. The connection between the cervical spine and headache frequency is well-established.

Yes — chiropractic care may help reduce headache frequency and intensity, particularly for tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches connected to cervical spine dysfunction.

At ProAdjuster Chiropractic Clinic, Dr. Maggio focuses on improving cervical spinal motion and alignment using the ProAdjuster — a computerized, technology-assisted adjustment system that delivers gentle, precise care without forceful twisting or cracking.

Patients often seek care for:

• Frequent tension headaches
• Recurring headaches after long hours at a computer
• Headaches connected to neck stiffness or restricted motion
• Post-accident headaches
• Sinus pressure-related headaches with cervical tension

Yes. Tension headaches are often related to muscle tightness and restricted motion in the neck and upper back. Chiropractic care may help by improving cervical spinal function and reducing the muscular tension that contributes to headache onset. The ProAdjuster method at our Virginia Beach clinic is especially gentle for patients dealing with neck-related headaches.

Yes. The cervical spine (neck) plays a significant role in many types of headaches. Restricted motion, muscle tension, or dysfunction in the neck can refer pain upward into the head — a pattern known as a cervicogenic headache. Many patients at ProAdjuster Chiropractic who seek care for neck pain also notice a reduction in headache frequency.

A cervicogenic headache is a headache that originates from dysfunction or restricted motion in the cervical spine, rather than from the head itself. These headaches often feel like pain starting at the base of the skull or back of the neck and radiating forward. Chiropractic care targeting the cervical spine may help reduce the frequency and severity of cervicogenic headaches.

Yes. Forward head posture and prolonged screen use (“tech neck”) place significant stress on the cervical spine and surrounding muscles. Over time, this stress can contribute to recurring tension headaches. Addressing cervical spinal motion and posture-related tension may help reduce headache frequency.

It varies by patient. Some patients notice a reduction in headache frequency within a few visits, while others with chronic or more complex headache patterns may need longer care. After your initial evaluation, Dr. Maggio will provide personalized recommendations based on your specific situation.
