Headaches and Migraines Treatment
Headaches and migraines are common, but they can feel very different from person to person. Headaches often cause a dull, tight, or throbbing pain in the head, face, or neck, while migraines tend to be more intense, often one‑sided, and may come with nausea or sensitivity to light and sound.
If you are struggling with headaches or migraines, Lumena Clinic in Milton Keynes offers gentle osteopathic treatment to ease tension headaches, posture‑related pain, and neck‑related headaches. These symptoms can be linked to many factors, including neck and shoulder tension, jaw clenching, eye strain, stress, hormonal changes, and long hours at a desk or on a screen.
Osteopathy provides a hands‑on, drug‑free approach that looks beyond the symptoms to find and treat contributing factors such as neck stiffness, muscle tightness, jaw tension, or poor posture. Your osteopath will assess how your neck, jaw, shoulders, and upper back may be involved, then create a personalised treatment and self‑care plan.
The aim is to:
- Reduce the intensity and frequency of your headaches and migraine episodes
- Address neck and posture issues that trigger or maintain pain
- Help you understand your triggers and how to manage them
- Support lasting improvements in head and neck function
Using gentle hands‑on techniques, posture advice, and simple exercises, treatment focuses on restoring balance and reducing flare‑ups naturally.
