Exercises for Chronic Headache

Exercises and techniques for chronic headache relief with tips from Dr. Saleh Atiyah in Amman

Regular exercises play an important role in reducing chronic headache frequency and severity. Neck and shoulder strengthening and stretching exercises and relaxation techniques are particularly effective. Regular physical activity improves mood and sleep and reduces stress, contributing to headache reduction.

Neck stretching and strengthening exercises mentioned in the neck pain section are very beneficial for headache, especially cervicogenic headache and tension headache. The chin tuck exercise corrects the forward head posture that contributes to headache. Upper trapezius and levator scapulae stretching relieves tension in the neck and shoulder area.
