Neck Pain & Headaches: Find the Real Source
Neck pain often pairs with tension headaches or dizziness. Poor posture, long desk hours, and past sprains can “lock up” joints and overwork stabilizing muscles.
Our plan: gentle cervical/thoracic adjustments, soft-tissue work, mobility drills, and desk ergonomics. We’ll also coach simple daily habits—micro-breaks, breathing, and sleep positioning.
Local reach: We see neck-pain patients from Hugo, Lino Lakes, Centerville, Forest Lake, and White Bear Lake.
Serving Hugo and Nearby Communities: We proudly care for patients from Hugo, White Bear Lake, Forest Lake, Lino Lakes, Centerville, St. Paul, Scandia, North Oaks, and Vadnais Heights.

What causes neck pain and tension headaches—and how does chiropractic help?
Common drivers include joint restrictions in the neck/upper back, muscle guarding, poor desk posture, prior sprains/whiplash, and stress-related tension. At Hugo Chiropractic, we use gentle cervical/thoracic adjustments, soft-tissue/muscle work, targeted stretching, and desk/sleep ergonomics to restore motion and reduce headache frequency for patients from Hugo, White Bear Lake, Forest Lake, Lino Lakes, and Centerville.
Can chiropractic help migraines or is it just for “tension” headaches?
We routinely help with tension-type and cervicogenic headaches (neck-related). Some migraine patients also report fewer or milder episodes when neck mechanics and triggers (posture, stress, sleep) are addressed. Care is individualized and may include mobility work, exercise progressions, and trigger-management coaching alongside adjustments.
Do I need X-rays or a referral—and how soon will I feel better?
You typically don’t need a referral, and imaging isn’t routine unless exam findings suggest it. Many people feel notable relief within a few visits, followed by steadier gains as posture, mobility, and strength improve. We’ll share home drills, micro-break strategies, and pillow/sleep tips so results last.
