Headache Treatment

Headaches can be annoying, debilitating and affect your quality of life.

Headaches are one of the most common health-related condition in Australia, with the statistics stating that nearly all people will experience a headache in their lifetime.

There are many different types of headaches but the most common one is known as a Tension Headache which:

• feels like a tight band of pressure around the head
• is often associated with muscle tightness in the head, neck or jaw
• can be caused by physical or emotional stress

Poor posture, muscle tension in the neck and poor mobility of the spine can lead to pain into the head. At Prime Movement Physiotherapy, we implement strategies to treat headaches from a musculoskeletal origin.

Stress can also cause or worsen a headache by:

• tightening the muscles, particularly of the upper back, shoulders, neck and head
• lowering a person’s tolerance to pain
• reducing the effects of medications such as pain-relievers
