What is headache relief?

A quick primer.

Many recurring headaches are linked to stiff neck joints and tight neck and shoulder muscles. These are called tension-type and cervicogenic headaches.

At our Carlsbad office, headache care treats the neck and upper back, then adds posture and exercise habits to help reduce how often headaches return.
