There are three different systems that need to be assessed to determine the causes of the headaches.
First, what time of day do the headaches occur? Chemistry headaches will generally start upon or shortly after awakening in the morning and are caused by sympathetic subluxation.
Headaches that start later on in the day are often due to parasympatheic subluxation and can be caused due to stress.
Second, what region of the head are the headaches occurring? And finally, what triggers the headaches? Chemistry headaches are usually caused by a hypothyroid condition.
They can also be caused by an adrenal, supradrenal problem.
Waking up with a headache is often due to hypoadrenalism and should use a stimulant like black coffee to start their day.
Headaches can also be caused by wearing eye glasses.
Sinus headaches come on around 9:00 am and are gone by 6:00 pm because of body temperature change.
All over headaches which are often associated with the flu are due to a toxic build up of albumin and uric acid.
The patient can take a teaspoon of baking soda with warm water once a day to neutralize the acid.
Hypertension headaches make up for about 18% of all headaches.
Headaches that start during the day and are rest-alleviated are parasympathetic.
Chronic headache sufferers need to be counseled about the dangers of aspirin and other pain relievers.
A migraine occurs only on one side of head and centers itself begin the eye to the base of the skull.
They are often preceded or accompanied by nausea or vomiting.
They can also be preceded by dizziness, blurry eye or spots before the eye.
A migraine is almost exclusively a chemistry problem.
Other possible causes could be due to impacted wisdom teeth, or a silver pin in the roof of the mouth which puts toxins into the blood stream.
If a patient feels a migraine coming on, working up a sweat by quickly walking/running can help rid the toxins of the body.
