Headaches and Migraines have the potential to debilitate a person from living their lives. Often people do not think of physical therapy as a modality to find some relief from their symptoms. Headaches and migraines can be caused from a wide range of factors including hormone imbalances, trauma, and neck pain and injury. When you come to FWPT in search of some relief for your headache or migraine you can expect a usual physical therapy examination with the addition of a very careful history, myofasical and craniosacral assessment. Treatment will be almost 100% manual therapy, with some education, stretches, and exercises as your body needs.
