“What A Pain in The Neck”

Brannon Chester, DPT at First Choice Physical TherapyHave you ever suffered from constant headaches that start in the back of your neck and end up feeling like the pain is right behind your eye? What about after a long day at work, do you ever have a dull headache that will not go away until you lay down and try to “relax” with little to no relief? This type of headache is referred to as a “tension headache” and originates in the deep muscles of your neck that attach at the bottom of your head and can result in intense headaches. Due to poor posture, along with myofascial restrictions and cervical immobility, tension headaches are very difficult to relieve with home remedies. If you are suffering from headaches and want to do something about them, come in for an evaluation by one of our Doctors of Physical Therapy to decrease your pain and get rid of that headache once and for all.
