Tension Headache Treatment in Omaha

 Tension headaches feel like a band around your head or pressure behind your eyes.

 They are often caused by muscle strain, posture imbalance, and chronic stress on the neck joints. 

If you struggle with frequent headaches that feel like a tight band across your forehead or pressure at the back of your head and neck, you’re likely suffering from tension headaches. At The Omaha Headache Clinic in Omaha, we specialize in helping people just like you find lasting relief — without relying on pain medication or invasive treatments.

Tension headaches are one of the most common types of headaches, often caused by muscle tension, stress, and poor posture. They usually begin with tightness in the neck, shoulders, and base of the skull and can radiate into the head and temples.
Common symptoms include:

• Dull, aching pain on both sides of the head
   
• Tightness or pressure around the forehead or behind the eyes
   
• Neck or shoulder tension
   
• Fatigue or difficulty concentrating
   

Unlike migraines, tension headaches typically don’t cause nausea or visual disturbances — but they can still be debilitating and affect your work, mood, and energy levels.

Common triggers include:

• Hours on computers or phones
   
• Sitting with rounded shoulders
   
• Jaw clenching
   
• Neck stiffness
   
• Poor spinal alignment
   
• Tight traps, SCM muscles, or suboccipitals
   

When the neck loses its natural curve, the muscles have to work overtime, pulling on the head and creating constant pressure.
 

When the neck muscles stay tight for long periods, they place pressure on the nerves and blood vessels that supply the head — triggering painful headaches that can last for hours or even days.

At The Omaha Headache Clinic-Green Chiropractic, we take a comprehensive, corrective approach — not just covering up symptoms. Our Omaha chiropractors identify the root cause of your tension headaches through a detailed spinal evaluation, digital posture analysis, and motion X-rays when necessary.

Our goal is to restore proper alignment and motion to your neck and upper spine. By improving posture and reducing nerve irritation, we help the body function naturally — decreasing headache frequency and intensity over time.

Our treatment plans may include:

✅ Gentle chiropractic adjustments
✅ Cervical curve restoration
✅ Stress-reducing soft tissue therapy | Muscle release techniques
✅ Postural correction exercises
✅ Lifestyle and ergonomic advice

Patients often report fewer headaches, better sleep, and improved focus within weeks of care.
