Headache & Migraine Physio FAQ
What should I expect during my first physio session?
Your physiotherapist will assess your symptoms, lifestyle, and posture to determine possible triggers. From there, they’ll create a personalised treatment plan, which may include manual therapy, gentle exercises, and relaxation techniques.
How many sessions will I need to see results?
The number of sessions depends on the cause and severity of your symptoms. Many patients start noticing improvement within a few sessions, while chronic cases may need ongoing management for lasting relief.
Can poor posture cause headaches and migraines?
Yes. Poor posture, especially from prolonged sitting or screen use, can create muscle tension in the neck and shoulders that contributes to tension headaches and migraines.
Are physiotherapy treatments painful?
No. Physiotherapy for headaches and migraines is gentle and focused on relieving tension rather than causing discomfort. Techniques are tailored to your comfort level and adjusted as you progress.
Can physio help if I’ve had migraines for years?
Absolutely. Even if you’ve experienced long-term migraines, physiotherapy can help reduce frequency and intensity by addressing muscle imbalances, improving posture, and teaching effective self-management strategies.
Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?
In most cases, you don’t need a referral to book an appointment with a physiotherapist. However, if your GP or specialist has recommended physiotherapy, it can help guide your treatment plan.
