About the Webinar

An overview of the current body of literature on physiotherapy management of migraine will be provided, with emphasis on neck treatments and mechanisms relating to neck pain and migraine. Current evidence indicates that patients with neck pain and migraine have different underlying mechanisms. Subgroups with different treatment directions are present. Therefore, this session will discuss on an individualised approach to assessment and management of patients with migraine and neck pain. A case scenario will be discussed to illustrate these concepts.
