Did you know that some studies show that as many as 80% of headaches have the neck as a source of their symptoms? This was suggested back in the mid 1990’s, and since then physiotherapists have undertaken extensive research to further our knowledge about the neck, and how it can cause many common headaches and migraines.

Our highly qualified Flow physiotherapists have undertaken extensive training and have a wealth of experience in managing headaches that are related to problems in your neck.

Treatment will usually involve a combination of manual therapy, massage, exercise and education.

We are also skilled at identifying other factors (lifestyle, health, posture, biomechanics) that might be contributing to your symptoms and helping you to address these.

So book in today, and get long-lasting relief from your headache so that you can get back to doing all the important things in life!

Can physio help with my headache?

In many cases yes, physiotherapy treatment will be able to assist in alleviating headache symptoms. Cervicogenic headache refers to a headache that is caused by neck related tightness or stiffness. Pain is commonly felt on one side of the head/ face more than the other. The pain will generally start at the base of the skull and may radiate over the head. People may experience signs similar to that of a migraine if the cervicogenic headache is quite severe. The treatment with the greatest success for long term relief for cervicogenic headache is a combination of manual physiotherapy treatment along with a stabilising program which your physio will teach you.
