Call today. Chiropractor When headaches keep coming back or migraines stop you cold, something in your neck or spine may be the cause. ## When Boise Headaches Mean More Than Stress Boise's dry, high desert air sits around 40% humidity or lower. A lot of our patients notice their headaches get worse when they're dehydrated or tense from desk work. We see a steady stream of Micron and Boise State area workers. They get headaches tied to hours of screen time and poor posture. If your headaches show up daily, wake you up, or come with neck stiffness, that's not something to push through. Dr. Henze looks at your spine and neck first, because tension headaches and migraines often start there rather than your head.

Tension Headaches Migraines With Neck Pain Screen and Desk Posture Whiplash From Ski Falls Dehydration Headaches Chronic Daily Headaches Dr. Henze has treated headache and migraine patients across the Treasure Valley for three decades. Patients treated successfully, many of them coming in first for chronic headache pain. New Patient Special covers your exam, digital X-rays, and first treatment. 30yrs 9,000+ $99 Tight neck and shoulder muscles from desk work can squeeze down on nerves and cause a dull, steady ache. Many migraine sufferers also carry neck tension. We often find the two are connected, not separate problems. Hours hunched over a monitor strain the upper spine. This is common among our tech and healthcare patients. Bogus Basin ski season brings headaches tied to whiplash and neck strain that show up days later. Boise's dry climate and summer heat lead to dehydration headaches that respond well to hydration counseling and adjustment. If you reach for pain relievers almost every day, your spine may be the real issue, not your head.

Call our Chiropractor office today to find out what's really going on. ## How We Treat Headaches and Migraines Getting relief starts with finding the actual cause, not just treating the pain. Exam and X-Rays Root Cause Diagnosis Personalized Treatment We start with a full exam and digital X-rays to see what's really happening in your neck and spine. This is part of our $99 New Patient Special. Dr. Henze looks at posture, old injuries, and daily habits that might be feeding your headaches. We explain what we find in plain language. We build a plan around your headaches, using adjustments and tools like laser therapy or spinal decompression when needed. Most patients notice a difference within a few visits. How often your headaches happen changes the length of your plan. Added therapies like laser or decompression affect total cost. Insurance coverage can lower your out-of-pocket amount. Long-standing neck issues may need more visits than a new headache pattern. Upfront pricing before any treatment begins. Your plan and costs explained before you commit. No surprise charges added later. Pricing depends on how often your headaches happen. It also depends on whether they're tied to old injuries or daily habits like desk posture. Our $99 New Patient Special covers your exam and digital X-rays. It also covers your first treatment. You'll know what to expect before committing to anything more. We always walk you through our findings and the plan before any ongoing care starts. Many insurance plans help cover chiropractic visits, and Idaho doesn't require a doctor's referral for you to see us directly. Headache and Migraine Treatment Cost in Boise Typical price range $99 - $450 Fair Pricing ## Headache and Migraine Treatment Questions Here are answers to what Boise patients ask us most about headache and migraine care. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Q:** How much does headache treatment cost? A: Our $99 New Patient Special covers your exam, digital X-rays, and first treatment. After that, cost depends on how many visits your plan needs. We walk you through pricing before any ongoing care starts so there are no surprises. **Q:** How long until I feel relief? A: Some patients feel better after their first visit, but most need a few weeks of regular adjustments. Chronic headaches that built up over years usually take longer than a headache that just started. We track your progress every visit. **Q:** Should I try to treat this myself first? A: Stretching and rest can help mild tension headaches. But if headaches come back often or come with neck pain, you need a real exam. We find the cause instead of just covering the symptom. **Q:** How is this different from just taking pain medicine? A: Pain medicine only masks the ache for a few hours. We look for the actual reason your headaches keep returning, often tension in your neck or spine. Fixing that reduces how often headaches happen in the first place. **Q:** When should I come in right away? A: If your headaches happen daily, wake you up at night, or come after a fall or whiplash, come in soon. Ski season brings a lot of these cases from Bogus Basin. Waiting usually lets the problem settle in deeper. **Q:** What signs mean my headache is spine related? A: Neck stiffness and headaches that start at the base of your skull point to your spine. Pain that gets worse with certain movements does too. We also see this often in patients with long desk hours. A simple exam confirms it. **Q:** Do you treat migraines differently than regular headaches? A: Yes, migraines often need a broader look at your neck, posture, and sometimes hydration. We've treated thousands of patients over 30 years and build each plan around the specific pattern we find. No two headache plans look exactly the same.
