Headache Management in Bangalore
At Advanced Physiotherapy Clinic, we focus on the assessment and management of musculoskeletal headaches, which typically result from tightness or dysfunction in the neck, shoulder or jaw areas.

What is a Musculoskeletal Headache?
Musculoskeletal headaches (also known as tension-type headaches or cervicogenic headaches) is an umbrella term used to describe headaches that develop from tightness or dysfunction of the neck, shoulder, or jaw muscles, rather than an issue with the brain or sinuses.
Conditions Managed Under Headache Management
Cervicogenic Headaches
Treatment for stiffness in the cervical spine or tightness of the neck and shoulder muscles.
Tension-Type Headaches
Treatment for muscle contractions in head and shoulders caused by psychological stress.
Postural Headaches
Treatment for anterior head posture and strain on neck muscles from prolonged sitting or screen use.
TMJ Headaches
Release of the jaw and facial muscles to alleviate headaches associated with joint dysfunction.
Whiplash Headaches
Treatment for headaches and neck stiffness resulting from trauma or injury.
Chronic Recurrent Headaches
Long-term treatment, combining manual therapy, exercise, and ergonomic retraining.
How Does Headache Physiotherapy Work?
During your first appointment, the physiotherapist will evaluate your neck mobility, muscle tension, posture, and any trigger points that may be contributing to your headaches.
- Manual therapy for neck and shoulder muscles
- Joint mobilization of cervical spine
- Posture correction and ergonomic advice
These techniques help reduce muscle tension, improve posture, and relieve pressure on pain-sensitive structures to avoid future headaches.
