How we Help Headaches

We can help you with headaches at our Chagrin Falls clinic.

Headaches may be common but they are not normal

Common Causes Include

  • Physical trauma
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Food sensitivities
  • Chemical toxins
  • Emotional stress
  • Jaw imbalance
  • Poor posture

Sometimes there may be a combination of factors. Our examination process helps identify the most likely cause.

The Drug Approach

Many drugs may appear to be a convenient approach, but they have side effects such as liver or kidney damage. These drugs only mask the symptoms without treating the underlying cause.

Our Approach

The examination begins with assessing all factors of the head.

These include testing to determine:

  • the normal motion of the bones of the skull

  • imbalances in the muscles of the jaw

  • tension of the muscles that hold your head on your neck.

  • Possible testing for food allergies or hormonal imbalance

  • After identifying the local imbalances that cause the headache we identify the triggers that cause them to occur.

Personalized Treatment Program Includes

  1. Correcting the underlying physical faults including cranial, spinal, muscle and TMJ imbalances.

  2. Address any food allergies, hormonal imbalances and deficiencies.

  3. Remove or minimizing the triggers.

Success Story

During three years of suffering migraine headaches, I went through a very debilitating stage in my life. In my particular case, it was a progressively disabling disease. I was under heavy medication in order to function. Without any optimistic panorama to get well after being in the hands of the best migraine headache specialist, I had the opportunity to meet Dr. St. John and after only few visits he found the right way to treat my internal imbalance. After few months of  chiropractic care, food supplements and changes in my own life awareness and attitudes, my body started to respond adequately  and I was able to get off my medications. I never lost the courage to keep on Dr. St. John's treatment because I was able to experience positive changes right away.
