Headaches That Start in the Neck? It Might Not Be a Migraine.
Many headaches begin in the cervical spine rather than the head itself.
Cervicogenic headaches often start at the base of the skull and radiate forward. They may worsen with neck movement or prolonged sitting.
In Cambridge, long hours of desk work and screen use are common triggers. Forward head posture places strain on upper cervical joints and surrounding muscles, which can refer pain into the head.
At Milton Chiropractic Clinic, we assess spinal mobility, posture, and movement patterns to determine whether your headaches are mechanically driven.
If neck stiffness is part of the pattern, a structured spinal assessment may help identify the underlying cause.
