Some headachesareoftengroupedunder the term “cervicogenicheadache”meaning that the primary source is from the neck. There are well mapped out patterns of headaches that come from the differentpartsof theneck,shoulderand upper back areas. The discs between your bones (vertebrae) and joints in the upper neck often contribute to headaches. Even headaches located in the forehead or behind the eyes are often referred pains stemming from problem areas in the neck and base of the skull. The joints connecting the top three vertebral levels of the neck handle almost 50% of the total motion of the entire neck. This means they absorb

a lot of repetitive strain. These joints bear the main load of the weight of the head (about that of a bowling ball).
