Abstract

Musculoskeletal headaches are a common complaint with impaired postures. About 15% to 20% of chronic and recurrent headaches are diagnosed as cervicogenic headaches and are related to musculoskeletal impairments (4). Often associated with tension in posterior cervical muscles and pain at the attachment of the cervical extensors, at the cervico-thoracic junction, and/or radiating across the top, side, or back of the scalp
