What Are the Most Common Causes of migraines Treated by Osteopaths?

When it comes to persistent or recurring headaches (migraine), identifying the root cause is essential as it can come from a variety of causes.
The most common triggers osteopaths address on patient with migraine is the poor posture, especially for those who spend long hours sitting or working at their desk. Slouched shoulders and a forward head position can place an excessive strain on the neck and upper back, leading to tension headaches and Migraines.
TMJ dysfunction or jaw misalignment, is another frequent source of head pain and migraines. Patient can feel pressure around the temples or behind the eyes.
Osteopaths also treat cervical spine tension, in this case it is the  restricted movement or some muscular tightness in the neck that contributes to a cervicogenic headaches.
The stress and the nervous system dysregulation can also be a factors that can increase the symptoms of migraines.
Blood flow, another cause of migraine can be a tension in the neck area that block the blood flow and can build up painful pressure at the back of the head, behind the ear and behind the eye.
Trapped nerve, it is not rare that the cause of an headache or migraine is a trapped nerve. You can have moved your head a bit too fast or made a bad movement that trapped a nerve. The influx being block it can give you a migraine.

Which Osteopath Treatment Is Used by an Osteopath to Treat Migraines?

At our London osteopathy clinic, we use a range of advanced and gentle osteo techniques to offer long-lasting osteopathic treatment for migraines and headaches. One of the core approaches used by your migraine specialist osteopath is the re-harmonisation of the body’s three diaphragms, cranial, thoracic, and pelvic in order to reduce deep-seated tensions and restore structural balance. This holistic approach helps normalise pressure and circulation from the head down to the pelvis, making it particularly effective in managing chronic migraine symptoms. If necessary, our osteopath will also assess and treat the sacrum  and the coccyx’s unresolved trauma from falls or childbirth that can often contribute to recurring migraines.

For patients with a history of head injuries, car accidents with whiplash, cervical trauma, or difficult birth deliveries, these techniques are essential to address the hidden causes of migraines. Our osteo treatment also includes the drainage of the intracranial sinuses to promote optimal blood flow to the brain. This drainage is efficient to reduce the frequency and severity of headaches.
Dry needling can also be used as a treatment for migraines, particularly when muscular trigger points are involved.

Each of our osteo session is designed to restore the balance by increasing the blood circulation, the mobility of the jaw, neck and back joints as well as the mobility of cranial structures.

FAQ about Migraines, Headaches and osteopathy treatment in London

What are Migraines?

Migraines are a form of headache located either on the left or right side of the head. A throbbing pain is often accompanied with digestive issues (vomiting, nausea), sensitivity to noise and light, as well as neurological issues (blurred vision, acute sensitivity of the face). Migraines appear sporadically and can last a few hours and up to three days. Cause and effect factors are unknown and triggers can be multifactorial. It is therefore necessary to study all those factors according to each individual case in order to find the appropriate treatment.

What triggers migraines?

The most common migraine’s triggers are:

• Hormonal (2/3 of women experience migraines related to their menstrual cycle)
• Psychological (stress, anxiety, exhaustion)
• Dietary (alcohol, hypoglycaemia, fasting, fats, chocolate, irregular meals)
• Traumas (head trauma, fall landing on the coccyx, whiplash)
• Behavioural (lack of sleep, unhealthy lifestyle)
• Postural (bad posture at work)
• Muscle tension
• Pinched nerve

Can an Osteopath Use Dry Needling in the Treatment of Migraines?

Yes, in some cases, our osteopath for migraines can incorporate dry needling as part of a broader treatment strategy to alleviate migraine symptoms. Dry needling targets myofascial trigger points, tight muscle bands that can refer pain to the head and neck, helping to reduce your tension and improve your blood flow. This technique is particularly effective to address tension-type headaches and cervicogenic migraines, which often originate from muscle dysfunction in the shoulders, neck, or upper spine.
