The following outlay the risks of using several recently promoted products : Vyepti (eptinezumab-jjmr) is used to treat symptoms not the cause of your migraine but as a temporary measure these are facts you should know : to try to prevent migraines as a symptom it is given as an IV infusion every 3 months (four times a year). Vyepti infusion helps reduce monthly migraine days for chronic migraines and episodic migraines in adults so that you may have more migraine-free days. Vyepti infusion works by blocking a protein called calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which is involved in migraines. CGRP levels increase during a migraine attack and may also be involved in the start of a migraine. It is thought that by blocking CGRP, Vyepti reduces monthly migraine days.

Understanding Sinusitis: Before delving into treatments, it's essential to understand what sinusitis is and its common symptoms. Sinusitis occurs when the tissues lining the sinuses become inflamed or infected. This inflammation can lead to symptoms such as facial pain, nasal congestion, headache, and difficulty breathing. Sinusitis is a common yet often misunderstood condition that affects millions of people worldwide. If you've ever experienced the discomfort of sinus congestion, facial pain, or headaches, you may have wondered what exactly sinusitis is and how it develops. In this article, we'll explore the ins and outs of sinusitis, including its causes, symptoms, and treatment options. What is Sinusitis? Sinusitis, also known as a sinus infection, occurs when the tissues lining the sinuses become inflamed or infected. The sinuses are air-filled cavities located in the bones around the nose and eyes. When these cavities become blocked or inflamed, they can trap mucus and cause a buildup of pressure, leading to symptoms such as: Nasal congestion Facial pain or pressure Headache Postnasal drip Cough Fatigue How Does Sinusitis Develop? Sinusitis can develop for a variety of reasons, including: Viral Infections: The most common cause of acute sinusitis is a viral infection, such as the common cold or flu. These infections can cause inflammation of the sinus lining, leading to symptoms that typically resolve on their own within a few weeks. Bacterial Infections: In some cases, sinusitis may be caused by a bacterial infection. Bacterial sinusitis often develops following a viral infection when the sinuses are already inflamed and more susceptible to bacterial growth. Symptoms of bacterial sinusitis may be more severe and can require antibiotic treatment. Allergies: Allergic reactions to pollen, dust, pet dander, or other allergens can trigger inflammation in the sinuses, leading to symptoms similar to those of sinusitis. Allergic sinusitis may be chronic and require ongoing management to control symptoms. Structural Issues: Structural abnormalities in the nasal passages, such as bone reposition - a slight off-set position in nasal bones through knocks to the head commonly causes severe congestion, or a deviated septum, nasal polyps can obstruct the sinuses and contribute to sinusitis. Environmental Factors: Environmental factors such as air pollution, smoke, or changes in humidity levels can irritate the nasal passages and increase the risk of developing sinusitis. Treatment Options for Sinusitis Treatment for sinusitis depends on the underlying cause and severity of symptoms. Options may include: Over-the-counter medications for temporary relief such as decongestants, antihistamines, and pain relievers Nasal irrigation with saline solution or phytochemical spray - reduces infection and inflammation naturally helps maintain a cleared condition Prescription medications such as antibiotics or corticosteroids Steam therapy - essential oils can be infused to help clear passageways as a temporary solution Allergy management - certain foods tend to create a mucous reaction more than others (especially dairy, gluten, corn, artificial flavouring/colouring/seasoning)) Surgical intervention for structural issues - last resort and is often unsuccessful NasalRX - Endo-nasal Inflation Procedure - restores alignment of nasal/sinus structure triggering a dramatic clearing of sinus passage ways - the only procedure that with little to no risk realigns the nasal bones and is highly effective for the longer term. Conclusion Sinusitis is a common condition that can cause significant discomfort and interfere with daily life. Now there is a revolutionary treatment that creates rapid change for the longer term. By understanding the causes and symptoms of sinusitis, you can take proactive steps to resolve or at least dramatically reduce & manage your condition effectively. Don't let sinusitis hold you back—take control of your sinus health and breathe easier today.

ANDY OVERCOMES CHALLENGING MUSCULOSKELETAL OBSTACLES TO WIN THE 2024 CHRISTCHURCH MARATHON - AFTER INTENSE SPORTS CHIROPRACTOR CHRISTCHURCH PROGRAME “After bouncing around different therapy providers for almost 2 years in an effort to try and relieve some of my chronic nerve related back and hamstring pain, a good friend recommended John Gibsons (Sports Chiropractic) services, Headache & Tendon. The treatments were a bit of a shock to the body at first with so many different areas of soreness, but I was absolutely amazed at how after just 5 – 6 sessions I was making so much improvement. With new found mobility and confidence in my body I managed to really push my training to a place that I wasn’t (previously) sure I’d be able to get back to. I recently won the Christchurch Marathon and owe a huge thanks to John for the work that he has put in to helping me get back to pain free movement. Cheers mate!” Andys statement after a massive effort to win the Christchurch Marathon in 2hours 21mins 38 seconds. BioMechanical function is critical in determining performance.

How Problems Develop with TMJ Problems can arise from many structures in and around the TMJ joint, including the muscles, joint surfaces and a small disc that sits inside. Muscle imbalances are common and can lead to stiffness or pain (or both) when opening and closing our mouth. Tightness in the surrounding muscles could be a result of trauma to the jaw (like being punched or hitting your chin after a fall), clenching when sleeping (known as ‘Bruxism’), a neck dysfunction/restriction, or from dental problems such as having an uneven bite. People who are stressed will often clench their jaw in their sleep, which may lead to waking up with a sore jaw or headaches. Inside the joint itself is a small disc which slides and moves during jaw movements. Sometimes this disc can become ‘displaced’ and may not slide and move as smoothly as it should. This may often lead to a jaw that clicks or cracks when opening the mouth. For the most part, the click is painless, however some people may experience pain alongside a click. In some severe cases, the jaw may temporarily lock, which as you can imagine would be quite distressing to experience. Pain from the jaw joints can sometimes also present as ear pain. What is the best treatment for Jaw? Headache & Tendon Christchurch Chiropractor, Dr John Gibson is specifically trained in TemporoMandibular Jaw (TMJ) treatment strategies and treats many patients efficiently with these advanced techniques. It is always recommended to have highly effective & inexpensive manual specialised therapy/ TMJ treatments at clinics like Headache & Tendon, Christchurch before considering surgery or more specialised invasive dental protocols. What is a jaw specialist called? Temporo-Mandibular Neuromuscular treatments are specialised in this field to release locked jaw, painful jaw, misaligned jaw, over-bight, general face pain etc… Is jaw surgery for TMJ worth it? Not always . In some cases surgery is necessary and critical, but your TMJ Practitioner at Headache & Tendon Christchurch is highly trained to refer immediately if necessary when diagnosed. After thorough investigation he will prescribe treatment protocol if it is determined full recovery can be likely achieved with non invasive manual procedures. Headache & Tendon Christchurch achieves a very high success rate of full recovery of symptoms after performing TMJ treatments - therefore we suggest this as an option before seeing a medical specialist to suggest invasive and expensive surgery. Can GP help with jaw pain? Not generally. A GP will refer usually to a specialist that performs surgery - rather than suggest referral to a TMJ practitioner/Chiropractor who is trained to reverse the condition with specific alignment soft tissue release techniques. Chiro/Osteo treatment for TMJ dysfunction Treatment for TMJ dysfunction will greatly depend on the cause of the dysfunction. A simple muscle imbalance may be corrected by soft tissue release of the jaw muscles, joint mobilisation, and corrective mobility and strengthening exercises. However, it can be more complex. A TMJ dysfunction may come hand in hand with a problem in the neck and shoulders, be it a restriction of movement or poor stability and strength in the region. A BioMechanical approach to treating TMJ dysfunction will include acknowledgement of the alignment of the head, jaw, neck, shoulders. If we believe your TMJ issues stem from a dental issue, we may refer you to the dentist for a check-up as sometimes problems can be resolved with input from both professions.

Migraines are often symptomatically severe - the frustration of being at the mercy of seemingly minor triggers that can derail an entire day. However our Headache & specialist migraine treatments, at our Christchurch clinic, Headache & Tendon, are well known to result in full recovery for these conditions. There exist three more primary types of Head Pain: Tension-type headache Cervicogenic headache Migraine headache Each of these varieties has distinct characteristics utilised by clinicians for categorisation and diagnosis. Additionally, it's entirely feasible to experience more than one type simultaneously. Tension-type headaches, the most prevalent primary headache, typically present as a mild to moderately intense throbbing sensation, akin to a tight band encircling either side of the head. They generally lack associations with nausea and aren't exacerbated by routine physical activities. Cervicogenic headaches, classified as secondary headaches, stem from issues within the neck region. They often coincide with reduced neck mobility and can be induced by specific neck positions. The intensity of these headaches correlates with the level of neck pain experienced. Migraine headaches, a recurring condition, manifest in attacks lasting from 4 to 72 hours. They commonly affect one side of the head, pulsating intensely, and are accompanied by moderate to severe pain. Unlike tension-type headaches, migraines worsen with routine physical exertion and are typically accompanied by nausea, photophobia, and phonophobia. Regarding headache recovery, manual therapy is advised for all three types. However, each type necessitates a tailored approach. Our specialised Osteopathic, NasalRX, CFR and Sports Chiropractic treatments work resolve your pain. Chiropractic adjustments are more suitable for cervicogenic and migraine headaches, while low-load mobilisation tends to yield better results for tension-type headaches.
