Why Headaches Develop
Headaches can be influenced by a combination of factors, including:
- Tight neck or shoulder muscles
- Reduced movement between neck joints
- Poor posture or desk ergonomics
- Stress and muscle guarding
- Long screen time
- Past injuries like whiplash
Many people are surprised by how closely the neck and head symptoms are linked.
Your Headache Assessment
To identify the cause of your headaches, we examine:
- Neck mobility
- Muscle tension and trigger points
- Posture and work habits
- Joint function in the neck and upper back
- Any neurological signs if needed
Understanding these patterns helps us select the most effective treatment.
