Headaches & migraine

Headaches can have different patterns and causes. Learn what to discuss during an assessment, including whether neck symptoms are relevant and when to seek medical care.

What you may notice

These experiences do not identify a single cause, but they can help you explain what has changed.

Recurring headaches

Note how often headaches occur, how long they last and whether the pattern has changed.

Headache with neck symptoms

Neck discomfort may occur alongside a headache, but it does not prove the same cause.

Work and rest are affected

Light, sound, screens or activity may make normal routines more difficult.

Common questions

Is migraine the same as neck-related headache?

There is no single answer for everyone. Your history, current symptoms, activities and preferences help determine the most suitable next step.

What should I record?

There is no single answer for everyone. Your history, current symptoms, activities and preferences help determine the most suitable next step.

When is a headache urgent?

A sudden or significant change, new weakness, loss of function or worsening symptoms should be medically reviewed before routine care.

What can an assessment clarify?

The first visit covers your history, relevant movement and physical checks, an explanation of the findings, and a discussion of suitable options.
