Everyone knows that osteopaths are experts in treating back pain but fewer realise that we can treat headaches too. Especially those that arise from stiffness or muscular tightness around the neck or shoulders.

These so-called tension headaches are extremely common and often respond really well to osteopathic treatment.

We begin with a detailed medical history and a discussion of your current pain and discomfort. This is followed by a thorough examination to identify the causes of your particular headache. From there we’ll use a variety of effective, safe techniques to improve movement, reduce muscle tension and ultimately reduce your pain.

We’ll also give you plenty of advice about how to keep the pain at bay, such as stretches and exercises to do at home, changes to your workstation or car seat setup and even how to choose the right pillow!

If you’re suffering with headaches and would like to talk to one of our team, give us a call on 0115 981 5134 or email us on info@mooreosteopathy.co.uk.
