What it is
Tension-type and cervicogenic headaches are often linked to the neck, jaw and posture. When the neck is the driver, physiotherapy can genuinely reduce how often and how badly headaches strike.
Signs and symptoms
- A tight, band-like headache
- Pain that starts at the base of the skull
- Neck and shoulder tension
- Headaches worse after desk work or stress
