Headaches can have many different causes. If headache and migraine sufferers have ruled out hormonal imbalances, blood pressure issues, dehydration, and high-altitude oxygen deprivation, then a Foundational Shift may be present. A Foundational Shift may place abnormal pressure on the nerves that control sensations in the head and neck. In addition, a Foundational shift may disrupt efficient blood flow and cerebrospinal fluid pressure within the skull. Correcting the Foundational Shift may allow the blood and cerebrospinal fluid flow to return to normal, reducing the secondary conditions of headaches and migraines. 

Balance Chiropractic has helped many people suffering with dysautonomia in Colorado Springs. Dysautonomia is a miscommunication between the autonomic nerve system and the brain. Patients often experience fainting, headaches, tachycardia, high and low blood pressure, stomach troubles and possibly breathing issues. The autonomic system includes the Vagus nerve, an important nerve that travels directly from the brain stem to the vital organs in your chest and stomach. A Foundational Shift may exert pressure on the Vagus nerve, interfering with its function and contributing to dysautonomia. Some patients seeking dysautonomia relief in the Colorado Springs area may be frustrated if their doctor only relies on medication. Balance Chiropractic in Colorado Springs can precisely tune the brain-body connection, reduce Vagus nerve interference, and help people living with dysautonomia and POTS.

Many patients with fibromyalgia have chosen Balance Chiropractic as their fibromyalgia doctor in Colorado Springs. Often, there is a high correlation between the onset of fibromyalgia and concussions or whiplash injuries. Patients with fibromyalgia report feeling tired, tender, depressed, and fragile. If there is a Foundational Shift in the spine, it can disrupt the brain-body connection. This disruption can cause inappropriate communication between the brain and the body. This communication can take the form of muscle sensitivity and pain, which can rob patients of the energy to do the things they want to do. For patients seeking a fibromyalgia doctor in Colorado Springs, they may be frustrated if their care only revolves around medication. By reestablishing a proper brain-body connection and balancing muscle activity, our Foundational Chiropractors can help people seeking fibromyalgia relief in Colorado Springs. 

Many patients undergo extensive testing of their visual, proprioceptive, and inner ear functions after experiencing prolonged bouts of dizziness, balance, and vertigo. When patients with dizziness, balance, or vertigo problems in Colorado Springs don’t find relief from traditional methods, there may be a Foundational Shift present. A Foundational Shift can irritate the “vestibular nuclei”, a collection of nerves in your brain stem that travel from the inner ear and receive information from your upper neck. A Foundational Shift can also alter the signals coming from the upper neck, creating distortion in the signals to your brain about your balance and body position. Balance Chiropractic refers and co-manages patients seeking balance, dizziness, and vertigo doctors to ensure that patients are receiving well-rounded and multi-faceted care in Colorado Springs.
