When the neck feeds the headache

Some headaches begin in the neck: stiff upper vertebrae, tight muscles at the base of the skull, hours at a screen. Dr Boudet assesses the neck and head together and eases the tension gently.

Signs it may come from the neck

These headaches often have a familiar pattern.

  • Pain starting at the base of the skull or one side
  • Worse after screen time or poor sleep posture
  • Accompanied by neck stiffness

A calm, careful session

Dr Boudet uses gentle cranial and neck techniques and shares posture tips. For new, severe or unusual headaches, she will ask you to see a doctor first.
