Experiencing Recurring Headaches?
If you experience headaches that start in your neck or shoulders, increase with stress, or feel worse after a long day at your desk, Glenn Strutt provides Osteopathic care that may help support your symptoms. Glenn sees patients at our Cannon Hill Clinic, located near you and works with people across Brisbane experiencing tension-type or posture-related headaches.
How Glenn Strutt Supports Patients with Headaches
Glenn provides a physical assessment to explore how muscular tightness, joint strain, and postural load may be contributing to headaches. Many patients report symptoms that originate from the neck, upper back or jaw. These patterns are often associated with reduced mobility, tension, or muscle fatigue.
Glenn’s sessions include manual therapy and movement strategies aimed at reducing physical strain, supporting spinal alignment, and improving your ability to sit, move or rest comfortably.
Key Takeaways – Osteopathy for Headaches
- Appointments available in our Cannon Hill Clinic
- Glenn uses hands-on techniques to support musculoskeletal contributors to headaches
- Initial Consultations are 45 minutes and include a Wellness Plan
- Suitable for desk workers, students, and patients with posture-related symptoms
- No referral needed, book directly online or by phone
Headaches are complex, but Osteopathy may support underlying physical factors contributing to your symptoms.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
At your appointment, Glenn will examine your spine, jaw, shoulder tension and postural control. He’ll ask about the timing, location and intensity of your headaches and assess any contributing physical patterns.
Treatment may include:
- Soft tissue release in the neck, upper back or jaw
- Gentle joint mobilisation of the cervical or thoracic spine
- Postural support strategies
- A clear plan for follow-up care or ergonomic changes
Your Wellness Plan may also include stretches or movement advice based on your physical presentation.
Who Books Osteopathy for Headaches?
Patients commonly seek Glenn’s help when experiencing:
- Tension headaches at the base of the skull or behind the eyes
- Headaches that begin after computer use or screen time
- Pain that travels from the neck to the head
- Headaches linked to jaw clenching or postural fatigue
- Recurring symptoms that worsen by the end of the day
If your headaches don’t seem neurological or medical in origin, a physical assessment may help you understand the musculoskeletal component.
