CAUSE OF HEADACHES

​

Headaches can result due to a variety of reasons including stress, poor posture, accidents, medications, etc. Neck pain is another common cause of headaches and specific physiotherapy treatment can be very effective in the treatment of this condition.

A cervicogenic headache, also referred to as cervical headache or migraine, is a headache caused by a disorder of the neck and related structures.

CAN DRY NEEDLING HELP WITH HEADACHES?

Headaches can have different causes, but overactive muscles in the neck are a big contributor to these symptoms. Stress, cold or a wrong sleeping or sitting pattern can all have an effect on this and can result in either neck pain, stiffness, dizziness or headaches. Releasing this tightness can have a significant reduction or elimination of these headaches and dry needling is definitely a way to achieve this goal! To learn more about dry needling, click here.
