Common Headache Types and Locations We Treat
Cervicogenic Headaches
Caused by neck joint or soft tissue issues, symptoms include neck-to-head pain and restricted movement. Treatment involves manual therapy, posture correction, and specific exercises.
Tension Headaches
Resulting from stress, poor posture, and muscle tension, symptoms are band-like pressure around the head. Treatment includes soft tissue release, stress management, and posture training.
Migraines
Triggered by neurological changes, hormones, or environment, symptoms include throbbing pain, nausea, and visual disturbances. Treatment focuses on trigger management, manual therapy, and relaxation techniques.
How Physiotherapy Can Help You Find Relief
Our headache physiotherapy services are evidence-based and personalised, delivering effective relief through targeted treatment.
- Postural Correction: We assess and improve posture through exercises and ergonomic changes to reduce neck strain and headache triggers.
- Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques like joint mobilisation and soft tissue release ease neck and upper back tension, relieving headache symptoms.
- Strengthening Exercises: Personalised exercises target weak neck and upper back muscles to prevent recurring cervicogenic headaches.
- Migraine Management: We address migraine triggers, use neuromuscular therapy, and teach at-home relief and stress management techniques.
