Headache Relief with customized Physical Therapy

Frequent headaches can wear you down—making it hard to focus, work, or just enjoy your day. At Resilience Physical Therapy, we take a different approach. Instead of simply masking the pain, we dig into what’s really causing your headaches and create a treatment plan to help you feel better for the long term.

what’s causing your headaches?

Headaches are often tied to more than just stress. They can come from tight muscles, poor posture, old injuries, or issues in the jaw or neck. Common causes we treat include:

  • Tension-type headaches

  • Cervicogenic headaches (starting from the neck)

  • TMJ-related pain (jaw dysfunction)

  • Whiplash or neck trauma

  • Posture-related strain (like tech neck)

  • Stress and muscle tension

  • Headaches after a concussion

  • Surgical recovery-related discomfort

Even if you’re not sure where your headaches are coming from, we’ll help you figure it out.

how Physical Therapy can help

Physical therapy is a gentle, effective way to treat headaches by addressing the root of the problem—not just the symptoms. Your care may include:

  • Manual therapy to ease tight muscles and stiff joints in your neck, shoulders, or jaw

  • Dry needling to release muscle knots that may trigger headaches

  • Targeted exercises to improve posture and reduce daily strain

  • Movement retraining to build better habits and alignment

  • Education on stress reduction, workspace setup, and daily routines

  • A custom home exercise plan so you can keep feeling better between visits

This holistic, hands-on care helps reduce how often headaches happen—and how intense they feel.

Cody is great to work with. He treats her as a person and not as a number. He communicates well with her, her doctor and me. Helped my mom and I navigate different avenues of assistance as well.
