Tension Headaches
Tension headaches are the most common type of headache, often described as a dull, aching pain across the forehead, temples, or back of the head. These headaches are typically caused by stress, poor posture, or muscle tension in the neck and shoulders. They can last from 30 minutes to several hours, and the pain is usually mild to moderate. Treatment for tension headaches often includes over-the-counter pain relievers, chiropractic care, relaxation techniques, and lifestyle changes. Regular exercise, good posture, and stress management can significantly reduce their frequency and severity.
