Studies have shown that roughly 1/3 of all people suffer from headaches.  Although triggers may vary, subluxations or spinal misalignments are shown to be involved in up to 80% of all headaches.

Symptoms include but are not limited to: throbbing pain, nausea, vomiting, visual disturbances called scotomas, vertigo and other neurological symptoms.  To fight off the pain associated with headaches, many people take medications instead of trying to remove the cause of these headaches.  Drugs can interfere with the body’s natural pain-control circuitry, causing rebound headaches along with other undesirable side effects.

According to Dr. Rothbart and a group of MD’s at Syracuse University, who thoroughly studied the phenomena of headaches,

“Some brilliant people have put their hearts, souls and minds to this (headache) problem and haven’t come up with anything. All we’ve been able to do is treat people with an array of medicines, one after the other, and hope the side effects won’t be too bad.  We couldn’t believe it at first. We’ve been able to put together a scientific explanation for how neck structure causes headaches — not all headaches, but a significant number of them.  It’s true that chiropractors have been saying this for years.”

Utilizing natural approaches, chiropractors are capable of eliminating headaches, or dramatically reducing their occurrence and frequency.  Subluxations in the spine, particularly in the upper part of the neck, can irritate the upper cervical nerves causing increased pain sensation to various parts of the head and face.  With a proper spinal examination, a chiropractor is able to determine if someone has spinal subluxations and nerve blockage to the head region.

  • What a great experience to work with Dr Peter. He’s so thorough, so knowledgeable and so great at explaining why and what he’s doing. The orthotics that he prescribed and ordered for me have made a big difference! Highly recommended.
  • I started going to Dr. Marco back in January 2020 when I was suffering a lower back injury. After seeing the reviews on google, I decided to give him a chance and I haven't looked back. Dr. Marco has helped me in my recovery and brought me back to feeling healthier than ever. He is extremely knowledgeable, kind and easy to talk too. Not to mention, the prices are very reasonable and not overpriced. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a chiropractor in Etobicoke.
  • I have been seeing Dr. Marco for many years now and he helps me each time I see him. He’s friendly, knowledgeable and has a level of clinical awareness that comes from years of experience which helps to create an overall positive interaction. Making appointments is never an issue and the clinic environment is welcoming and relaxing. Highly recommend him!
  • Royal York Chiropractic was recommended to me by multiple people, so I decided to give it a go for my back and shoulder problems. My first experience with Dr. Marco was extremely positive. He is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. His honesty and commitment to improving my pain is what kept me coming back. Very positive experience!
  • I have had very positive experiences with Royal York Chiropractic. While Dr. Peter has predominantly been overseeing my care, I have had adjustments with Dr. Marco as well. Both are competent, caring, friendly and willing to answer questions. Anna keeps the office well-organized and the few times I've had to wait, it has never been for long.
