🌟 Are Your Headaches Actually Coming From Your Neck? 🌟
Many people live with frequent headaches without realizing the pain may actually be coming from the neck — this is called a cervicogenic headache.

👉 What is a Cervicogenic Headache?
A cervicogenic headache is pain that starts in the neck and radiates up into the head. It’s often linked to poor posture, muscle tightness, joint stiffness, previous neck injury, or repetitive stress.

👉 Common Symptoms Include:
✔️ Headache on one side of the head or face
✔️ Neck pain and stiffness
✔️ Pain that worsens with certain neck movements or sustained posture
✔️ Pain that may start in the neck and travel up to the head
✔️ Sometimes dizziness, jaw discomfort, or shoulder/upper back tightness

👉 How Physical Therapy Can Help:
💪 Improve neck and upper back mobility
🧠 Reduce headache frequency and intensity
📐 Correct posture and movement patterns
👐 Decrease muscle tension with hands-on treatment
🏃‍♂️ Build strength and stability to prevent recurrence

You don’t have to live with constant headaches. If this sounds like you, we’d love to help you feel better and get back to living comfortably!

“A Huge Thank You to Big Stone Therapy

I want to take a moment to sincerely thank Big Stone Therapy, and especially Dave, and Mel, for their incredible care and support.

I have trusted Dave with my family-three generations-for over 30 years, and Mel for more than 15 years. Their knowledge, compassion and professionalism are truly unmatched. They’ve helped me through two shoulder surgeries, two knee replacement surgeries since July, and a few back issues along the way.

I also want to thank Ronni and Emma for the amazing work they are doing with my grandson and workout buddy, who suffered a very serious knee injury during football this year. He has months of hard work ahead of him, but I know he is in the very best hands so he can get back to playing football and basketball his senior year.

What I appreciate most about this entire team is how they challenge you to do more, believe in your progress, and cheer you on every step of the way. Their encouragement and dedication truly set them apart.

I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my family. Thank you all for everything you do!”

“The physical therapy staff at Big Stone Therapies in Baxter, MN was simply outstanding in managing my physical therapy sessions. From the kindness of the front office receptionists to the physical therapists, they all were so very welcoming & friendly.

Sciatica pain was really impacting my day to day physical activities. I was concerned that I would still have pain even after physical therapy. Much to my delight, my expectations were exceeded. Through 6-7 weeks of hard dedicated work, my physical therapist team of Jeff, Ronni, and intern Maddie, did an amazing job of eliminating all my sciatica symptoms. I was very concerned the pain would impact my golf game. It did not. Jeff put together a very detailed, professional therapy plan of stretchers & strengthening that have helped me immensely. I will continue the plan as a maintenance plan for life that I can do at home.

Big Stone is fortunate to have such high quality physical therapists like Jeff, Ronni, and Maddie. Thank you so very much for giving me back a high quality of life.”

Thank you for choosing Big Stone Therapies, Sid! Keep up with the exercises and that golf game will keep you moving when that warm weather returns! ⛳️
