Looking for a Natural Headache Treatment? Try Physical Therapy
Headaches: no matter which team you support, which country you live in, or how much money you make, headaches unite everyone.
According to the World Health Organization, headaches are the most common central nervous system disorder globally, affecting 50% of the world’s population each year.
Fortunately, physical therapy offers a natural headache treatment that corrects the problem at its source instead of simply masking symptoms.
Can Physical Therapy Help Your Headaches?
Scientists have discovered over 300 different types of headaches.
Don’t worry, you don’t need to identify the specific type to treat your pain. Most headaches stem from musculoskeletal imbalances and respond well to physical therapy.
You might be a suitable candidate for physical therapy rehabilitation to treat your headaches if:
- You often wake up with headaches
- You also experience neck, back, or shoulder pain, knots, or stiffness
- You grind your teeth or clench your jaw
- You sit behind a computer or at a desk for extended periods of time
- You recently suffered an auto, sports, or workplace injury
- Your headaches began or got worse after a recent surgery
