Even if you feel like you have managed to live with your tension headaches, they can impact and affect your daily life:
Our team of Osteopaths at Canterbury Health Hub (CHH) will first assess your tension headaches to determine their cause and severity. Based on the assessment, they will develop an individualised treatment plan.
Osteopathic treatments at CHH aim to restore proper function and balance to the body, which can reduce tension headaches. Our team will tailor a treatment program for you using a combination of soft tissue massage, stretching, joint mobilisation, manipulation techniques, and more. This helps with resolving and/or managing symptoms for the long term, rather than just for a short time.
Your Osteopath will develop a customised exercise plan to address any imbalances or weaknesses in your muscles, which is a vital step in breaking the cycle which may be contributing to your headaches.
Education and prevention are essential for long-term management of tension headaches. The CHH team will provide resources for self-care, including stretches and self-massage techniques which will assist you in getting back on track to do the things you love!
