Headache Treatment in Soho, London

For headaches arising from the neck (cervicogenic) and tension-type headaches, hands-on treatment that eases muscular tension and restores neck movement often helps, alongside posture advice. It is not a treatment for migraine or other headache types, so the first step is assessing where your headaches are coming from.

Neck-related headaches often start at the base of the skull, are worse after long periods at a screen, and come with neck stiffness or tenderness. Yousif assesses your neck movement and the muscles involved to judge whether your headaches are mechanical and treatable — or whether they point to a cause that needs medical input.

Seek urgent medical advice for a sudden, severe headache unlike any before, a headache with fever and a stiff neck, one that follows a head injury, or that comes with weakness, vision changes, or confusion. These need medical assessment rather than osteopathy. Yousif will always refer on if your presentation raises any concern.

Often, yes. For desk-related headaches, screen height, break frequency, and how long you hold one position matter as much as treatment. Yousif combines hands-on care with practical changes to how you work, so the headaches are less likely to keep returning once the muscular tension has eased.
