Tension headaches are the most common kind. They often feel like a tight band or steady pressure across the forehead, temples or the base of the skull. Migraines are often one-sided and throbbing, and may come with light or sound sensitivity or nausea.
Both are signs, not a diagnosis. Something is setting them off. Finding that something is the first job of the exam, and it is why people searching for headache relief in Conway start here.
A sudden, severe headache, or a headache with fever, a stiff neck, confusion, vision changes, weakness or trouble speaking needs urgent medical care. Call 911 or go to the ER.
Triggers differ for everyone. A short diary of when a headache starts and what came before it can point to patterns.
Dr. Merissa Beard starts with a full exam of your neck, upper back and posture, and talks with you about how often the headaches come and what seems to set them off. If chiropractic care looks like a good fit, she builds a plan around your life that may include gentle chiropractic adjustments and simple tips you can use at home and at your desk.
Her focus is personalized care. Dr. Merissa earned her Doctorate of Chiropractic at Parker University in Dallas in 2014, and she serves families across Conway. Meet Dr. Merissa Beard.
Neck tension often travels with headaches. Read about chiropractic adjustments for neck pain, or see how SoftWave therapy in Conway is offered in our office. Dr. Merissa will tell you at your exam if it fits your case.
Your first visit starts with a conversation about your headaches: when they began, how often they come and what you have tried. Then comes an exam of the neck, upper back and posture. Dr. Merissa explains what she finds in plain words and shares a plan before you leave. New patients can book online.
Do not wait if a headache is sudden and severe, comes after a fall or injury, or comes with fever, a stiff neck, vision changes or weakness. If your headaches keep coming back or are getting more frequent, book an exam so we can look for the cause.
