Headaches and migraines are often triggered or worsened by stress, muscle tension, injuries, sinus pressure and incorrect posture. An Osteopath can help manage all of these issues.
When a patient comes to see us about their problem we would start by carrying out a full assessment. We will ask questions about the symptoms of the headache, your lifestyle, your medical history and your general health. Headaches can be a sign of more serious pathology needing urgent medical investigation. The information we gather will assist in gaining a full picture of what your body is going through and what approach is best suitable for you.
A lot of headaches are found to be caused by musculoskeletal tension and/or postural issues stemming from the neck, these are termed cervicogenic headaches.
