Also known asHorton’s syndrome, cluster headaches are short-lived but painful headaches that occur every day for weeks or even months at a time. They occur in patterns or “clusters,” and they may even happen at the same time every year, such as in the spring or fall. What causes a cluster headache? While some headaches have specific triggers, such as hormonal changes, stress, or tension, cluster headaches typically donot. While theexact causeof cluster headaches is unknown, many medical professionals believe that they are associated with the hypothalamus. Some factors thatmay put you at a higher risk for developing cluster headaches include: • Age. Most people who develop cluster headaches are between 20-50 years old. • Sex. Males are more likely to develop cluster headaches than females. • Smoking. A large number of people who experience cluster headaches are smokers. • Alcohol. Alcohol use can aggravate or even trigger a cluster attack. • Family history. Those who have family
members with cluster headaches are more likely to develop themthemselves. How can Physical Therapy help relieve my cluster headaches? Some common Physical Therapy treatments for headache relief includes: • Muscle energy techniques
