Headaches

Headache

A headache, or pain at the forehead, back of the head, temples and behind the eyes can be debilitating. Body posture, muscle tension, skeletal asymmetries, teeth clenching, or environmental stresses may be contributing causes to your headache.

After a thorough evaluation, an individualized treatment program will be structured for you. Therapies may include biofeedback, massage, exercise, posture and specialized manual therapies techniques such as craniosacral, visceral, muscle energy and joint mobilization. At Orthopedic & TMJ Physical Therapy Center, we work to give you techniques to control or eliminate this pain from your life.

Tips you can use:

As soon as you feel a tension headache building, place a cold pack on the back of your neck at the base of your head, where the vertebral arteries tend to dilate. Leave on for 10 – 15 minutes.
