What is a headache?

Psychologically, a headache will steal your life. It will make you be a different person. You never get to be your real self! You really want to live free with no limits. Clinically though, a headache is pain in one’s head, face, or neck. Many times, a patient will think the pain is in their brain, but the brain itself cannot sense pain. In fact, brain surgery is many times done with the patient awake.

Headache pain is common. The National Headache Foundation has stated that there are over 45 million people in this country alone who have headaches all the time. And almost 75 percent of them are women. More than $4 billion is spent each year on over-the-counter medication for relief from headaches.

There are many different types of headaches and the cause of some of them is not known. Many of you have seen a lot of different healthcare providers about your headaches — pharmacists, neurologists, ENTs, acupuncturists, chiropractors, hypnotherapists, physical therapists, psychotherapists, etc. Many of you have had MRIs and many of you have even had BOTOX injections. Many of you have tried things your friends, neighbors, or relatives have told you about. But you still have the headaches all the time. If you have headaches on a weekly basis, you need help.

Here at Heartfelt Headache Relief, we have a diagnostic test that reveals whether or not the cause of your constant headaches is an imbalance in how your upper and lower teeth come together. Every time you swallow, your teeth come together. That’s about 3 thousand times a day — that’s about 1 million times a year — that’s about 10 million times in 10 years. If an imbalance in the way your teeth come together is the cause of your headaches, it can be treated and the headaches can possibly be completely eliminated.

An imbalance in your bite is serious for your health. Just try to walk around for one day with one shoe on and one shoe off. At the end of the day you will have pain somewhere! What if you did this for a year? What if you did this for 10 years?

If our diagnostic test reveals the cause of your headache is an imbalance in your bite, we have a state-of-the-art neuromuscular sports medicine therapy which can eliminate or reduce your pain without surgery, without needles, and without medications. Just check out the videos of patients that have undergone the therapy and now are headache free on the Testimony page of our website — www.HeartfeltHeadacheRelief.com.
