This review is from: Manual Therapy for Chronic Headache (Paperback)

Written for physicial therapists. The author believes many chronic headaches have a cervical origin and that while continued use of analygesics may ease the symptoms, they do not address the underlying cause. This books defines the types of headaches patients suffer from, what factors trigger joint pain, how to diagnose headaches, and treatment based on the work of Geoff Maitland, author of Vertebral Manipulation.
