Fun Fact Friday: Your body likes variety.
There isn’t one “perfect” posture you need to hold all day. Often, the best posture is simply your next posture. Moving and changing positions regularly can be more helpful than trying to sit perfectly for hours.

Headaches can be a real pain in the neck.....Literally.

Not every headache starts in the head. Sometimes the neck can be part of the problem — particularly when there is neck stiffness, muscle tension, reduced movement or irritation of the joints in the upper neck.

You might also notice:
- neck pain or stiffness with the headache
- symptoms aggravated by certain postures or prolonged sitting
- reduced neck movement
- pain that starts around the neck or base of the skull and travels into the head

A physio assessment can help work out whether your neck may be contributing and what treatment or exercises might help.

Fun Fact Friday 💡
A lot of physio success comes from what you do between appointments, not just what happens in the treatment room.

For example, we might identify that sitting too long, or the way you are sitting, is putting extra stress on an irritated back. If you leave the clinic and go straight back to the same habits, it is not surprising if the pain returns again within hours or days.

The same applies to your exercises, pacing, activity levels and the advice you are given.

Treatment can help settle things down and point you in the right direction — but lasting progress usually comes from putting that advice into practice.

Small changes, done consistently, can make a big difference.
