Do you suffer from Headaches and Migraines
Do you wake up with neck stiffness in the mornings
Do you feel that your neck stiffness brings on your Headaches and Migraines
Do you always feel like you have had poor quality sleep due to neck stiffness and Headaches
If you have answered yes 
to any of the above questions then it is likely that your neck stiffness is the cause of your Headaches and Migraines! When the first 3 neck joints are not moving properly, it places more pressure on one side of the disc between the neck joints, which further affects the way the neck joints move. When the neck joints are not moving properly, they also affect the way the neck muscles work, the uneven pull on the neck muscles often results in muscle spasms from the shoulders to the base of the head, further aggravating your neck stiffness!
This cycle of neck joint dysfunction, increased disc pressure, muscle spasms often becomes worse over time. 
When the first 3 neck joints are not moving properly, it also causes an increase in brainstem sensitivity which causes your brain to interpret sensations of stiffness and pain as Headaches and Migraines! That is why you find that your neck stiffness triggers your Headaches and Migraines!
Luckily it’s not all gloom and doom, because here’s the GOOD NEWS!
