Headaches

Treating Headaches

Headaches are a very common issue for many people and can be debilitating and interfere with daily life. It can often be difficult to diagnose the cause of the problem which sometimes makes treating headaches problematic. 

However, there has been evidence that headaches can be contributed by problems with the neck which can successfully be treated by physiotherapy.

The Physio 1 to 1 Approach to Assessing Headaches

We start with a thorough assessment to understand what’s causing your headaches. This includes checking how your neck moves, testing your muscle strength, and doing gentle clinical tests to help pinpoint the problem. We’ll also chat about how your symptoms started, what makes them better or worse, and how they affect your daily life. We take into account your medical history, posture, work habits, and even stress levels, because we know that everything is connected. This full picture helps us create a treatment plan that’s built around your unique needs and enables you to achieve your goals.

"I’ve been visiting George at Physio 1 to 1 for the last 6 months after a referral from my consultant and I have to say he has made huge improvements to a neck problem that I’d been putting up with for several years. More recently he has been helping me with a knee ailment which is also improving. I couldn’t recommend George more highly."

The Physio 1 to 1 Approach to managing Headaches

Hands-On Treatment

We use manual therapy techniques including joint mobilisation, soft tissue massage, trigger point release and passive physiological movements to reduce pain, ease tightness, and get your neck moving freer which can improve headaches.

Exercise & Pilates-Based Rehab

You might be guided through simple exercises or Pilates-based movements to strengthen your neck, upper back, and core muscles. These help improve posture, restore movement, and prevent pain from returning.

Posture & Ergonomic Advice

We’ll show you how to maintain good posture whether you’re working at a desk, sleeping, or doing everyday tasks. We can also help you adjust your workspace, choose the right pillow, or adapt lifting habits to reduce strain.

Education & Understanding Your Condition

We believe that education is powerful. We’ll help you understand what’s going on, teach you how to manage your pain, and support you in building confidence to move without fear.
