HEADACHES · NECK · SOUTH JORDAN
Headache treatment that starts with your neck
Many tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches (headaches that start in the neck) are linked to how the neck is aligned and how it moves. We measure your neck posture and motion, then use corrective care aimed at reducing the mechanical stress behind your headaches.

IS IT YOUR NECK?
Signs your headache may be coming from your neck
These are common patterns, not a diagnosis. Your evaluation sorts out whether your neck is a likely contributor and whether our care is the right fit.
People often tell us their headaches:
Start at the base of the skull
Spread from one side toward the eye
Come with a stiff neck
Get worse after desk or phone time
Began after a car accident
Come with forward head posture
Seek emergency care for a sudden, severe headache, a headache after a head injury, or a headache with fever, a stiff neck, confusion, weakness, vision changes or trouble speaking.
-
Posture · Forward head posture
When the head sits forward, the muscles and joints of the neck carry more load.
-
Alignment · Loss of the neck curve
A straightened or reversed neck curve changes how stress is shared.
-
Motion · Upper-neck motion
Stiff or uneven motion in the upper neck is a common finding.
-
Habits · Work and screen posture
How you sit, sleep and use devices, so the plan fits your day.
CORRECTIVE CARE FOR THE NECK
Treat the structure, then re-measure
We use Chiropractic BioPhysics® methods to work toward a healthier neck position, not only short-term relief. Our team supervises your traction and exercises so the work matches your measurements.
Posture Determines Function: the idea behind every plan.

-
02 · Correct
Specific adjustments and CBP® corrective neck traction, positioned from your measurements.
-
03 · Strengthen
Mirror-image and deep neck exercises, set up and supervised by our team.

04 · Re-measure
We repeat your measurements at re-evaluation so you can see what has changed.
Headache questions
-
Some people with migraines also have neck pain and posture changes that may contribute. We evaluate your neck and tell you plainly whether we think our care fits, and when another provider should be involved.
-
Headaches are common after whiplash. Start with an auto injury evaluation, where we measure and document your neck. Most auto injury patients have no out-of-pocket cost.
-
It varies with your findings and how you respond. We re-measure along the way so you can see whether the plan is working.
-
We offer clear cash care plans. Some insurance plans are accepted when coverage is available.
-
Yes. Dr. Gordon is fluent in Spanish, and so is our team.
