Beth- Drinking water will only help headaches that are caused by dehydration. It will also help the body to get rid of toxins, which also may be causing the headaches. Sugar is toxic to the body. So is any drug (prescription or OTC), and most “foods” that people eat. I don’t know what your diet is like, but I bet that there are toxins in there if you are suffering from headaches regularly. Even if your diet is clean now but you have not yet done a purposeful detox, headaches can result from that as well. I am obviously a huge fan of chiropractic, and do believe it’s a necessary part of healthcare. I have found that since changing my diet, I get many fewer headaches, including those that in the past I would have thought were caused by needing an adjustment. And in fact, I need adjustments much less frequently than I used to. Unless you have had major physical trauma, you should not need an adjustment every day. If the adjustment does not seem to “hold”, then there is something else going on. Chemical stress on the body can actually cause subluxations as well. And, most chiropractors have some kind of wellness plan that make it more affordable.
