About the Webinar

Headache is a common and debilitating condition, which can be difficult to diagnose and manage as it is both a symptom and a disease. The International Headache Society lists more than 300 different forms of headache, many arising from serious pathology, and clearly not all can be managed through physical intervention such as manual therapy and exercise. However, physical treatments have been shown to be effective in the long-term management of specific headache forms, including cervicogenic and tension-type headache. This seminar clarified evidence-based classification and management of headache suitable for physical treatment including exercise to improve clinical management.  

1.         understand the heterogeneity of patients with entrapment neuropathies;

2.         know how to (or not to) interpret commonly used tests; and

3.         understand why a one-size-fits-all management for these patients has failed.
