Neck Pain & Headaches: Is Your Posture the Cause?

Neck Pain & Headaches: Is Your Posture the Cause?

Do you finish your workday with a stiff neck, burning shoulders, or a throbbing headache? You are not alone. With the rise of desk jobs and smartphone usage, we are seeing a surge in "Tech Neck" and Cervical Spondylosis at our clinic.

Neck pain is rarely just "sleeping wrong." It is often the result of sustained poor posture placing immense pressure on the cervical spine.

The Connection Between Neck Pain and Headaches

Many patients are surprised to learn that their chronic headaches (often called cervicogenic headaches) originate in the neck. When the upper neck joints become stiff and the suboccipital muscles tighten, they send pain signals that radiate up into the head and behind the eyes.

How Physiotherapy Fixes the Root Causes

Painkillers only mask the symptoms. Our evidence-based physiotherapy approach targets the mechanical cause of your pain:

Try This Simple Exercise: The Chin Tuck

While sitting tall, gently draw your chin straight back like you are making a "double chin." Hold for 5 seconds and release. Repeat 10 times. This helps reverse the forward-head posture caused by computer screens.

 

Stop Living with Neck Stiffness

If you have been suffering from neck pain for more than a week, let our experts assess your spine.
