In this episode of the PT Snacks Podcast, we dive into the topic of cervicogenic headaches. We explore what cervicogenic headaches are, how to identify them, and how to differentiate them from other types of headaches. We also discuss evidence-based treatment options including manual therapy, joint mobilization, dry needling, and specific exercises.
