Migraines and Headaches

1 Sinus Headaches

These headaches create pounding pain around your nose and eyes. It can  feel as though you’ve just taken a punch from the heavyweight champion of the world.

Some describe a sinus headache as an ice-pick forced into their head, whatever the description the result is the same - pounding pain.

Bowen Therapy can work to ease congestion and clear your air passageways.

2 TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Headaches)

A temporomandibular joint headache is when the pain begins on the side of your face or if your jaw feels tender.

To relieve this painful headache, you must heal the source of pain.

Bowen Therapy works to realign your jaw. The gentle treatment works around the facial muscles, helping you find balance both physically and mentally.

3 Tension Headaches

Muscular tension creates headaches that can feel like migraines.

They often result from improper posture, sleeping positions, or heavy stress.

These headaches feel like a band of pressure that starts at the point of tension and moving upward into your head to cause pain.

Bowen Therapy works to release this tension, which reduces the impact it has on your headaches.
