Introduction
Cervicogenic headache (CGH) is a secondary headache that begins in the neck or occipital region and can refer pain to the face and head. CGH is caused by musculoskeletal dysfunction and research has shown that it responds to physiotherapy management. However, a careful assessment of multiple regions is necessary to ensure that all factors contributing to CGH are identified and addressed. This course, the last in the series on CGH, builds on the information from previous courses and provides a practical guide to the assessment and treatment of CGH.
