Headaches?

Blackrock Clinic Services & Procedures Physiotherapy Department Headaches?

Do you suffer from headaches? If so, have you ever considered physiotherapy treatment for your headache?

Blackrock Clinic Specialist Headache Physiotherapists may be able to help you.

There are numerous different types of headaches including:

  • migraine,
  • tension type headaches and
  • headaches arising from the neck.

Many headaches can be caused by reduced movement in the neck, having the neck in a certain position, increased tension or tightness in the neck muscles and sustained poor postures e.g. sitting at a computer. Headaches pic

Physiotherapy treatment may involve

  • mobilising the joints in the neck,
  • soft tissue massage,
  • trigger point release
  • stretching of neck muscles and
  • retraining muscle strength and coordination.
