Headaches

Headache Treatment

Headaches can stem from tension, posture issues, neck problems, or other underlying conditions, often disrupting daily life. Physiotherapy aims to reduce headache frequency and intensity by addressing contributing factors and improving neck and upper back function.

What to Expect in Physiotherapy

Your physiotherapist will assess your posture, neck mobility, and muscle tension. Treatment may include manual therapy, posture correction, strengthening exercises, relaxation techniques, and ergonomic advice. You’ll also learn strategies to manage triggers and reduce headache symptoms.
