Headaches

It is quite likely that most individuals have experienced the discomfort of a headache at some point in their lives. While some people may only suffer from occasional headaches, others unfortunately endure chronic headaches, such as tension headaches, cluster headaches, or regular migraines, which can significantly impact their daily lives.

The professionals at Engaged Motion Osteopathy are well-versed to address these conditions, establishing themselves as a leading treatment provider for headaches.

As numerous types of headaches exist, it is crucial for those suffering from these debilitating conditions to seek medical advice from a properly trained professional to ensure accurate diagnosis. Once a patient has received a formal diagnosis, it becomes easier to develop a treatment plan aimed at reducing the symptoms and severity of headaches, allowing individuals to resume enjoying life.

Tension headaches are the most common form of headache and are one of the most frequently treated headache-related conditions at Engaged Motion Osteopathy. Tension headaches affect roughly one-third of men and half of women and are often attributed to irritation or inflammation of the pain-sensitive structures within the head and neck regions. Patients experiencing tension headaches typically describe a dull ache, pressure, and tenderness in these areas.

Moreover, another prevalent headache-related condition treated at Engaged Motion Osteopathy is migraines. Migraines are considered more intense than tension headaches, featuring similar but more severe symptoms. These include prolonged aching in the head and neck regions, light sensitivity, and general feelings of malaise.

Fortunately, osteopathy has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment for headaches. Our dedicated and experienced team at Engaged Motion Osteopathy approaches these conditions with a holistic and comprehensive treatment strategy, focusing not only on symptoms but also on understanding our patients’ overall health.

Our team employs techniques designed to release muscles and enhance mobility, concentrating on specific pressure points within the head and neck areas. We also strive to address any underlying health issues or physical conditions that may be causing the pain. The benefits of osteopathy for headaches include:

Releasing muscle tension, leading to decreased pain and recurrence of headaches.
Improving circulation, which enhances blood flow and reduces the likelihood of headache development.
Our team of osteopaths is fully dedicated to understanding the root cause of your headaches with the goal of eliminating triggers.

We will conduct an initial assessment, followed by the creation of a treatment plan tailored to your symptoms and overall health improvement. Our experienced team recognizes the impact headaches can have on everyday life, and we aim to help you regain your health and actively return to living your best life.
