Understanding the Causes of Recurring Headaches

Headaches can quietly erode concentration, mood, and daily life, particularly when they recur. Many are linked to tension in the neck and upper back, to posture, or to the accumulated effects of stress and poor sleep. At Foundation For Life Healthcare in Appleton, near Oxford, the emphasis is on understanding the pattern behind your headaches rather than treating each one in isolation.

Care is provided from the clinic, a short drive from Oxford, by Jonny Hirtenstein, a chiropractor registered with the General Chiropractic Council. An initial consultation offers time to explore what may be involved.
