Got Headaches or Neck Pain at Work? Poor Posture Might Be to Blame

If you sit at a desk for most of the day and find yourself constantly rubbing your neck, battling headaches, or feeling tense in your shoulders—you’re not alone.

Millions of Americans suffer from headaches and neck pain caused by poor posture, especially if they work in front of a computer all day. The good news? Relief is possible—and you don’t need pain pills to get there.

At Action Medical & Chiropracticin Augusta, GA, we help patients treat the root cause of tension headaches, migraines, and posture-related neck pain with natural, science-backed solutions like chiropractic care, physiotherapy, and restorative treatments.

Why Does Poor Posture Cause Headaches and Neck Pain?

Think about your workday. Are you hunched over your computer? Looking down at your phone? Slouching in your chair?

Over time, poor posture puts pressure on your spine, tightens your neck and shoulder muscles, and throws your alignment out of balance. This can lead to:

Tension headaches

Neck stiffness

Upper back pain

Jaw pain or TMJ

Nerve irritation

That tight, throbbing feeling at the base of your skull? That could be your posture talking.

How We Treat Headaches and Neck Pain at Action Medical & Chiropractic

We don’t just treat your symptoms—we look at why you’re in pain in the first place. Our team builds a custom treatment plan to relieve your discomfort, improve your posture, and prevent future flare-ups.

Here’s what your plan may include:

Chiropractic Care

Our gentle, science-based chiropractic adjustments help restore proper alignment to your spine. This takes pressure off your nerves, reduces muscle tension, and helps relieve headaches, neck pain, and even migraines.

By correcting spinal misalignments, we help your body work the way it was designed to—without pain meds or invasive procedures.

Physiotherapy

Our physical therapy services help retrain your muscles, strengthen your posture, and reduce inflammation. We’ll guide you through stretching and mobility exercises to relieve tightness and prevent your pain from coming back.

Lifestyle Counseling

Posture problems aren’t just physical—they’re part of your lifestyle. That’s why we offer personalized counseling to help you create healthier habits at home and at work. 

We’ll help with:

Nutritional tips to reduce inflammation

Restorative Medicine and PRP

For some patients with chronic tension or inflammation, regenerative therapies like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) can support healing from the inside out. This natural therapy uses your body’s own cells to repair damaged tissues and reduce long-term pain.
