🏀 March Madness Matchup: Headaches vs Your Child

If your child regularly comes home from school complaining of headaches, you’re not alone. Many parents hear things like “my head hurts after school,” “lights bother them,” or even see their child struggling with recurring migraines. And often the most frustrating part is that medical tests come back completely normal.

So what’s actually going on?

In this episode of the podcast, Dr. T breaks down why headaches are becoming increasingly common in kids and explains a simple way to understand what may really be happening inside the nervous system.

You’ll learn:

• Why the neck plays a major role in headaches
• How posture, screens, and school stress overload a child’s nervous system
• The important connection between the spine, sensory input, and the brain
• Why movement is one of the most powerful tools for helping kids feel better
• How gentle chiropractic adjustments can help improve communication between the brain and body

Dr. T also shares a simple framework parents can use to think about headaches differently: not as a “head problem,” but often as a nervous system overload problem.

If your child struggles with headaches, this episode will help you better understand what the body might be trying to tell you—and how to support your child’s nervous system so they can feel and function better.
