Donna’s Story: Overcoming Daily Headaches & Neck Pain
After suffering from daily headaches and persistent neck pain, Donna felt like she had tried everything—until a friend recommended Upper Cervical Chiropractic. Now, she’s living headache-free and sleeping better than ever.
Living with Daily Headaches: The Search for Answers
For years, Donna from Boise, Idaho, suffered from daily headaches and chronic neck pain.
- Waking up with a headache was the norm.
- Neck discomfort made it hard to focus.
- Relying on ibuprofen became part of her routine.
She had heard of chiropractic care, but only the traditional approach—the kind with twisting, cracking, and popping.
“Is this just my life now? Do I have to deal with headaches forever?”
Then, a friend recommended Peak Chiropractic and introduced her to Upper Cervical Care.
At first, Donna had no idea what it was—but she quickly learned that this approach was different.
- It wasn’t just about adjusting her neck—it was about realigning her nervous system.
- It wasn’t about masking symptoms—it was about fixing the root cause.
- And most importantly—it worked.

How Upper Cervical Care Made a Difference
Unlike anything she had tried before, Upper Cervical Chiropractic didn’t just treat her headaches—it addressed why they were happening in the first place.
Why were Donna’s headaches happening daily?
Her nervous system was under constant stress due to misalignments in the upper cervical spine (C1 & C2).
- The atlas and axis bones (C1 & C2) protect the brainstem, which controls nervous system function, blood flow, and pain processing.
- When these bones became misaligned, they interfered with communication between her brain and body—leading to constant tension, pain, and sleep disturbances.
- The headaches weren’t just a head issue—they were a nervous system issue.
The first step to healing? A gentle, precise Upper Cervical adjustment based on advanced 3D imaging.
“It took a few months, but I started noticing real progress.”
With time and consistency, the headaches started to disappear.

Life Without Daily Headaches: A New Beginning
After completing her Upper Cervical Care plan, Donna experienced life-changing results:
- No more daily headaches.
- No more relying on ibuprofen to get through the day.
- No more work disruptions caused by constant pain.
And something unexpected happened—her sleep dramatically improved.
“I didn’t realize how much my headaches were affecting my sleep until they were gone.”
Now, Donna feels better than ever.
- She enjoys her days without pain.
- She looks forward to waking up headache-free.
- She recommends Upper Cervical Care to everyone she knows.
“I honestly couldn't put a price on what this care has done for me. It’s been worth every penny.”
The doctors, the staff, and the welcoming atmosphere at Peak Chiropractic made her healing journey easy and enjoyable.

With a 3D imaging machine you visually can seen how out of align you are and then a plan of action to get you back to alignment
After dealing with migraines my whole life, then panic attacks and most recently vertigo, which is the absolute worst experience to go through. I was determined to find help and that is where I found Peak Chiropractic with Dr. John and Dr. Kyara. They are warm, welcoming and above all experts in the field of Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care. They walk you through the process step by step and with a 3D imaging machine you visually can seen how out of align you are and then a plan of action to get you back to alignment. The adjustments are gentle and precise. No cracking or extreme movement of the head, which I can't handle. The last time I saw a chiropractor the extreme movement of my head led me to vomit in the bathroom right after the appointment. Not the case at Peak Chiropractic! I am on a treatment plan that started in February and will go until July and that gives my neck time to adjust and heal and then hopefully maintenance after. I can't tell you how happy I am to finally feel better, sleep better. I don't have the wave of dizziness that I was having on the daily. I also suffer from panic attacks driving and that in itself is debilitating. Even though I came to Peak for migraine and vertigo issues, I had no idea how much it would help me in gaining back my confidence to drive. I no longer get in my car with the feeling of dread and panic. That in itself is life changing!! So thankful and grateful for the care I am receiving and the healing and recovery process. I highly recommend you take the time to get the help you need if suffering from migraines, vertigo or panic attacks. No reason to be miserable when you can get the help you need and through Amazing people like Dr. John and Dr. Kyara!Read Original Review
I am personally scared of being twisted and popped and that’s not part of their practice.
Peak Chiropractic is an amazing place. Jon and Kierra are very knowledgeable and friendly! They take the time to explain everything and make sure you’re well taken care of. They specialize in starting at the root of the cause and not over doing it. I am personally scared of being twisted and popped and that’s not part of their practice. They made me feel very comfortable and the recovery room is very comforting after the adjustment. I highly recommend Peak!Read Original Review
