Cervicogenic Headache

Cervicogenic Headache is often misdiagnosed or treated as a simple neck pain problem, while in reality it requires accurate clinical reasoning and a structured assessment approach.

Many patients present with headache symptoms that may be influenced by cervical spine dysfunction, but the challenge is knowing when the neck is truly contributing to the headache and when other headache types or red flags need to be considered.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to confidently assess patients with suspected Cervicogenic Headache, differentiate it from other common headache presentations, and apply a practical evidence-informed management approach.

This is not a theory-heavy session. It is designed to give you clear clinical reasoning, simple assessment frameworks, and actionable treatment strategies you can apply immediately in your practice.
