When a headache comes on, it’s easy to think “oh it’s just an ache and will go away tomorrow”. Or maybe you assume you just stressed out or didn't drink enough water. Even worse, maybe you think “it’s normal” because you’re getting older…
Is that how you’re feeling right now? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, every day at Healing in Motion Physical Therapy we help people in Western Denver Metro Area who feel this way. You see, when suffering from headaches, everyone asks us the same questions… Why do I keep getting headaches so often? Why does it start at the back of my scull and wrap around my head? Am I going to have to live with headaches forever? Unfortunately, there’s a lot of bad information out there that causes people to live with headaches for way too long. Here are the most common mistakes we see our patients make when it comes to neck and shoulder pain... Mistake #1: Thinking that frequent headaches will go away with rest. Mistake #2: Believing that frequent headaches will be “fixed” with painkillers. Mistake #3: Assuming that frequent headaches are a “normal” part of getting older. Mistake #4: Believing that since you tried other healthcare professionals (maybe even Physical Therapy) in the past means that it won’t work now. Mistake #5: Relying on “Dr. Google” or YouTube for exercises that didn’t make any difference (or maybe even made your neck pain worse!) Mistake #6: Getting relaxing massages to temporary relieve headache and neck stiffness, only to find it comes back after the massage wears off. Have you been making these mistakes? If any of this has happened to you, we want to say “we are sorry”...but remind you that you’re not alone. In fact, we see people just like you every day. And that’s why we’ve created a free Neck and Shoulder Pain guide for you. It goes over 7 Tips To Make That Pain In The Neck Go Away (and you can click on the button above to download it). But maybe you feel like you’ve read a lot of free information on the internet, and really just want to talk to someone about your problem. Is that you? If so, then we have a special opportunity for you (one that VERY FEW clinics offer). We save a limited number of spots each week for time for people who are not sure what to do about their headaches. That way, you can tell a professional your story, and get your question answered first, before ever making a commitment to book an appointment. Does that sound like something you would like to do? Here’s the most important thing… Most people get stuck trying to make a decision about what to do next. They go days, weeks, months (even years!) without taking action. The one thing we can guarantee is that by doing nothing, your headaches won’t get better. So the next important thing is to take action. Here are your best options to decide if Physical Therapy is right for you: |

I had been told by surgeons for the last 8 years to live with a decreasing range of motion, but Elena wasn't okay with that answer. Through a combination of traditional physical therapy, dry needling, and small-muscle strengthening exercises, she has helped me regain an increasing range of strength and dexterity. Every week I see new improvements!!! Thank you, Elena!!! |

Elena is wonderful! My neck was so much better and I was able to sleep without pain after the body work and massage. She listened to me and gave me great tips on what to do at home. Can’t wait to see her again. |
