The International Headache Society classified headaches into three categories:
- Primary Headaches: Over 90% of all headaches fall into this category. They include Tension Headaches (Stress Headaches), Migraines and Cluster Headaches.
- Secondary Headaches: Less than 10% of all headaches fall into this category. They may result from a sinus infection, brain tumor or aneurism.
- Cranial Neuralgias/Facial Pain: A minimal amount of all headaches fall into this category. They are caused by inflammation of the nerves in the head or neck and facial pain caused by trigeminal neuralgia and other headaches.

- “I had chronic daily migraines, which were getting progressively worse. They were so severe, that I was unable to work. In addition, I had to leave graduate school. I treated with other physicians and therapists previously, but I still suffered with painful migraines. I almost gave up hope, when a friend referred me to Kessel Wellness Center. Thanks to the care that I received, I went from being in a constant migraine state to having only a few migraines per month. In addition, the Center provided homework exercises for me to do. I now have the quality of life I want… one that I almost gave up hope of ever having.” – M.H.
- “As a model, I travel around the world. I often fly on a weekly basis. Due to my lifestyle, along with the added physical stress of wearing high heels, I started to develop severe headaches, low back pain and muscle spasms. My stress level was high and I was even having difficulty sleeping. Thanks to Dr. Kessel and Kessel Wellness Center, my life changed! The chiropractic care and adjustments that I received, corrected the physical and muscular stress placed on my body. Now, my headaches are just about gone. If I ever do experience a headache, I come in, get adjusted and walk out headache-free! My pain is gone, my posture is greatly improved, I sleep better and have reduced my stress.” - P. B.
- “For the last four months, I was experiencing a lot of headaches - suffering with migraines. In addition, I suffered with back and neck pain. I also noticed that I was slouching, my posture was not correct. I came to Kessel Wellness Center for help. I can honestly say that after my first chiropractic adjustment with Dr. Kessel, I felt better. Now, I am healthier, my posture is corrected and I am just about pain-free! As a graduate student, this really makes a big difference!”- A.T.
