  • (1888PressRelease) October 22, 2011 - At Concept Chiropractic and Rehab, Dr. Shirine Hegazi provides his patients who suffer from accident-related headaches with safe, effective solutions by utilizing chiropractic, physiotherapy, and state of the art rehab methods. Dr.Hegazi uses a holistic, natural approach that involves adjustments of the spine, stretching, exercises and deep muscle therapy to reduce pain and eventually rid the patient of their accident-related headache.

    In his office in Fairfax, Virginia, Dr. Hegazi observed, "Many people who suffer head trauma in an auto-accident, from a fall or from a sports-related incident will often have to deal with chronic headache pain. Often the pain will grow in intensity and preserve with time. The techniques we use at Concept Chiropractic and Rehab work towards promoting healing as well as relieving pain."

    Does chiropractic and rehab help relieve headache pain? According to a study by researchers at the Duke University Evidence-Based Practice Center in Durham, North Carolina, which led to the release in 2001 of a report, the answer is "yes." The report noted, "spinal manipulation resulted in almost immediate improvement for those headaches that originate in the neck, and had significantly fewer side effects and longer-lasting relief of tension-type headache than commonly prescribed medications."

    Other studies, such as that published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, have found that those who received chiropractic treatment for headaches still experienced benefits four weeks after stopping treatment, which was not the case with drug therapy.

    "The body has an amazing capacity to heal itself," said Dr. Hegazi. "Our main focus with the therapy is to open the channels of communication in the body while relieving stress and strain. It creates an internal environment for healing. We've seen wonderful results for those with accident-related headaches. These types of headaches can be especially challenging because they can be difficult to pinpoint. Also," he adds, "the nature of injury is such that pain, such as headaches, can develop days, weeks and months after the accident occurs."

    Rehabilitation therapy includes a total examination / evaluation of the patient and an analysis of all aspects related to their injury, including how their present physical, psychological and emotional state may be affecting their recovery. One of the benefits for patients who utilize Concept Chiropractic and Rehab is the dual nature of the healthcare they receive, as the office offers both chiropractic care and accident rehab therapy, which helps in addressing recovery issues related to physical traumas.
