Headaches in Lewes

End Headache Pain for Good in Lewes

Are constant headaches disrupting your life? Whether it’s tension headaches, migraines, or cervicogenic headaches, the pain can be unbearable—interfering with work, sleep, and daily activities. While medication may provide temporary relief, it doesn’t fix the root cause.

At Aging in Place Specialists in Lewes, our expert physical therapists offer drug-free, personalized treatments that eliminate headaches at their source. Using advanced manual therapy, targeted exercises, and postural correction, we relieve pain and help you break free from recurring headaches—without relying on medication.

Is Physical Therapy the Solution for Your Headaches in Lewes?

Most headaches aren’t just random—they stem from muscle tension, poor posture, and joint dysfunction in the neck and shoulders. Physical therapy attacks these triggers directly, helping to:

  • Release tight muscles in the neck and shoulders
  • Improve posture to reduce strain
  • Restore proper movement in the cervical spine
  • Correct muscle imbalances contributing to chronic pain

This approach works for:

  • Tension headaches
  • Migraines worsened by neck tension
  • Cervicogenic headaches (originating from neck issues)
  • Headaches linked to neck stiffness and poor posture
  • Chronic headaches that haven’t improved with medication

Unlike quick-fix painkillers, physical therapy gives you long-term relief—so you’re not trapped in a cycle of pain.

Why Choose Physical Therapy for Headache Relief?

1. Fixes the Root Cause—Not Just the Symptoms

Medication only masks pain. We address the underlying triggers—whether it’s muscle tension, poor posture, or joint dysfunction—so you get lasting relief.

2. Improves Neck Mobility & Function

Targeted exercises and hands-on therapy increase flexibility, restore movement, and ease muscle tension—reducing the frequency and intensity of headaches.

3. Personalized to Your Body & Lifestyle

No two headaches are the same. Your treatment plan is customized based on your posture, symptoms, and daily habits to deliver maximum results.

4. Teaches You How to Prevent Future Headaches

We don’t just treat your pain—we teach you how to keep headaches from coming back with expert guidance on posture, ergonomics, and stress management.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Comprehensive Headache Assessment

During your initial appointment, we conduct a full-body evaluation to identify the root causes of your headaches. Our assessment focuses on muscle tension and joint dysfunction in the neck and shoulders, posture and spinal alignment that could trigger headaches, neck mobility and strength to detect weaknesses, and lifestyle or ergonomic factors that might be contributing to the problem.

We also take the time to review your symptoms, pain patterns, and the impact on your daily life to create the most effective treatment plan for you.

Customized Treatment Plan

Based on the evaluation, we develop a personalized strategy to eliminate headaches and prevent them from recurring. Your treatment plan may include manual therapy to relieve muscle tightness and improve mobility, therapeutic exercises to strengthen neck and shoulder muscles, postural correction to prevent tension buildup, and education on headache prevention techniques for long-term relief.

Treatment sessions typically last 30–60 minutes, with the frequency adjusted to fit your specific condition and needs.

Having dealt with a complex problem of severe lumbar spine and right knee arthritis, as well as left leg pain and muscular atrophy, worsening for several years, the focused evaluation and therapy provided by Elena Clyde-Correnti has resulted in dramatic improvement. The increased mobility, balance and strength is amazing and I can now care for my animals and drive my jeep without assistance. The increase in strength and stability is quite noticeable to my friends, who are old as I am and now see that there is a program available that helps where other therapies have been unsuccessful or inappropriate.

The Physical Therapy that I received through Aging in Place was outstanding! My Physical Therapist, Holly Ann was professional, intuitive and patient. She created an individualized program based on my specific needs. As a result, I was able to increase mobility, increase standing balance, incorporate correct movement patterns and use breathing/postural resets to eliminate pain. Holly Ann gave me “tools” to use going forward to maintain AND increase healthy functional mobility. I will recommend Aging in Place, and especially Holly Ann to anyone who might need PT services.
