Osteopathy and headaches
There are different types of headaches and we can dissociate them into 2 main categories: tension headaches (clamping the skull with pulsatile sensation) and migraines (1 side of the head with nausea, sometimes vomiting and photophobia) . In both cases, pain in the neck is often linked to bad postures due to problems in the body mechanics (musculoskeletal system) that bring tension to the muscles between the vertebrae and the skull.
In osteopathy we often talk about the "iceberg" phenomenon, which implies that what we see on the surface is often the result of antecedents that seemed cured or of problems concealed by our protective systems. Your osteopath will therefore check your temporomandibular joint (TMJ or Jaw), if you suffer from bruxism (tightening teeth is often a body response to stress), your visceral system (the state of your digestion, your lungs for mobility of ribs and your shoulders), ergonomics at work or during studies, old concussions, whiplash following car accidents or falls in sports, wearing orthodontic, etc.
In addition to restoring the movement of structures and tissues (fascias, muscles and ligaments) that hamper the functioning of your body and your systems, your osteopath can help you observe your posture during your daily activities (office, sports, etc.). ).
It can also give you simple exercises to do at home to support the benefits of your sessions and also advise other services such as acupuncture and massage therapy to promote better recovery.
