Frequently Asked Questions

If you are suffering from a tension headache, you will feel a dull aching pain that is accompanied by a sensation of tightness or pressure on the sides and back of your head or across your forehead. You might also feel some tenderness in your scalp, shoulder, and neck muscles.

You might confuse tension headaches and migraine because they are both types of pain that affect your head. However, migraines usually cause a throbbing pain while tension headaches are usually a steady ache. Migraines also often only affect one side of your head instead of both. Lastly, migraine headaches can sometimes be accompanied by nausea or vomiting, aura, or sensitivity to light and sound.

Apart from short-term relief from painkillers, physiotherapy can help in long term by relaxing neck, head and jaw muscle and fascia, and educating on self-care and postural muscle exercise.Usually, if you get tension-type headaches often, your doctor may prescribe you over-the-counter pain relievers. This type of medication can provide you with short-term relief from the pain and allow you to continue what you’re doing. You can also get physical therapy for long-term relief.

You can visit a physiotherapist whenever you decide that you want a long-term solution for your tension headaches. Whether you’re already taking medication for your condition or looking for a new solution to your problem, getting physical therapy treatment can help.
