Headaches

Headaches are one of the most common health complaints worldwide, affecting millions of people every day. At Berry Physiotherapy, we're committed to helping you understand the causes of headaches and how physiotherapy can provide effective relief.

How can we help?

Physiotherapy is a highly effective treatment option for headaches, particularly cervicogenic headaches. Our experienced physiotherapists use a variety of techniques to address the underlying causes of headaches, including:

  • Manual Therapy: Our physiotherapists use gentle, non-invasive techniques to relax tense muscles, improve joint mobility, and reduce pain.
  • Exercise: Regular exercise is essential for maintaining strong neck muscles and improving overall spinal health. Our physiotherapists create customised exercise programs to help you build strength, flexibility, and endurance.
  • Education: We educate our patients on proper posture, body mechanics, and lifting techniques to prevent future headaches episodes.
  • Modalities: We use a variety of modalities, including heat and cold to reduce pain and inflammation.
Berry Physiotherapy can assist with headaches
