Headache Treatment

Frequent or ongoing headaches can significantly impact your quality of life — affecting your concentration, mood, sleep, and daily comfort. While headaches can have many causes, physiotherapy can be highly effective in addressing those related to posture, muscle tension, joint dysfunction, or nerve irritation.

Our goal is to not only relieve your headache symptoms, but to identify and treat the underlying musculoskeletal causes for long-lasting results.

Relief from tension, stress, and posture-related headaches.

Many headaches — particularly tension-type headaches and cervicogenic headaches — are closely linked to issues in the neck, shoulders, or upper back. Our experienced physiotherapists will assess your posture, mobility, and muscle function to tailor a treatment plan just for you. All sessions are one-on-one, allowing us to focus on the areas causing your discomfort.

Common treatment methods include:

Manual therapy and gentle joint mobilisation
Soft tissue release and trigger point therapy
Dry needling to release tight muscles
Postural correction and ergonomic advice
Stretching and strengthening exercises
Neck mobility and stability training
Headache management education
Relaxation and breathing techniques

Managing Headaches with a Holistic Approach

Headaches are often multifactorial — influenced by stress, work posture, sleep, screen time, and muscle tension. That’s why our treatment approach is holistic. We don’t just treat the symptoms; we equip you with practical strategies to reduce the frequency and severity of your headaches in everyday life.

We also work alongside your GP or specialist if needed, ensuring you receive coordinated care.

Take Control of Your Headaches

If headaches are interfering with your work, sport, or general wellbeing, physiotherapy can offer a safe and effective path forward. With the right care, many clients find lasting relief — and in some cases, prevent headaches from returning at all.
