IS YOUR HEAD & NECK PAIN RELATED?

(continued from outside)

There are many reasons why headaches may develop. A few common reasons include, but are not limited to: • Environmental factors, such as weather changes or exposure to certain perfumes. • Sleeping habits, such as the mattress you sleep on or pillow you use. • Ergonomic factors, such as the chair you use at work. • Stress. All of these factors can impact your risk of experiencing regular headaches, due to the intricate network of nerves and muscles in your neck. When Neck Pain Leads to Headaches The majority of the time, neck pain starts out as a seemingly small concern. Perhaps it begins with a crick in your neck, and then before you know it, you’re experiencing daily headaches. • Allergies. • Posture. • Previous injury to the neck.

It isn’t always the result of something large. While being in a car accident or experiencing another sort of injury can definitely lead to chronic neck pain, the cause of the issue isn’t always simple to identify. Sometimes it can be caused by a habit you may not even think of, such as your posture while sleeping or watching TV. If your posture results in your neck being placed at an odd angle or your shoulders being hunched over, your neck may take on too much strain and result in discomfort. These habits are common and many of us partake in them. While they may seem harmless at the time, they could be what’s leading to your neck pain and headaches. Fortunately, physical therapy can provide you with the resources you need to break these habits and get back to living your life comfortably. If you suffer from headaches and neck pain, you still have options. Call TODAY to schedule with Repair Sports Institute!
