Could Your Neck Be Contributing to Your Headaches?
Many people are surprised to learn that headaches can sometimes be associated with tension, stiffness, or reduced movement in the neck and upper shoulders.
Poor posture, prolonged desk work, stress, previous injuries, and muscle tension may all contribute to increased strain in this area.
A thorough assessment can help determine whether these factors may be playing a role in your symptoms.
Common Types of Headaches
Tension Headaches
Tension headaches are among the most common types of headaches.
They are often associated with:
- Tight muscles in the neck and shoulders
- Stress and tension
- Poor posture
- Long periods sitting at a desk
- Reduced neck mobility
Many people describe tension headaches as a dull ache, pressure, or tight band around the head.
Cervicogenic Headaches
Cervicogenic headaches are headaches that originate from structures within the neck.
Symptoms may include:
- Pain on one side of the head
- Pain behind the eye
- Neck stiffness
- Reduced neck movement
- Headaches triggered by certain neck positions
Because symptoms can overlap with other headache types, an assessment is important to help identify contributing factors.
