Headaches, or cephalgia, may also be caused by neck pain and/or misalignment in the cervical spine.

 

The misalignments of the cervical spine (vertebral subluxations) are most frequent in the upper cervical spine (atlas and axis).  These subluxations may be caused by falls, lesions, motor vehicle accidents (whiplash), traumatic birth, stress and muscular tension, etc.
