Physical Therapy and Treatment for Headaches

Mar 11, 2013

Posted by: Tyler Gamblin, PT, MScPT

Suffering from chronic or intermittent headaches? Are they interrupting your quality of life, emotional well-being or social interaction? Tired of being prescribed countless pills with short lasting effect? If you answered yes to any of these questions, Physical Therapy is well worth a trial and our staff at one of our four clinic locations would be happy to help. How can Physical Therapy help? Our therapists will begin an initial interview and assessment to determine your symptoms and rule out any serious injury or pathology and build a working picture of what may be contributing to your often debilitating headaches. At this visit, our therapists will determine whether your headache is one of 4 main types: cervicogenic, tension, migraine or cluster.
