Bellevue Redmond Physical Therapy Center uses a musculoskeletal approach to headache management. While demonstrating tension level awareness, we teach you how to control and reduce your stress levels and pain on a voluntary basis.
Biofeedback EMG and temperature training are the primary modalities used in this program. We include relaxation training and stress management for long-term pain relief.
Initial treatment may include electroacuscope for headache pain relief. This is a painless, needle-less, non-invasive electrical stimulation of acupuncture points.
We have excellent results with tension or muscle contraction headaches, and significant improvement with migraine headaches using this physician-directed program. Biofeedback training has been found useful also in the treatment of stress management, colitis, anxiety attacks, hyperventilation and other stress-induced disabilities.
- 8 - 12 sessions are the usual course of treatment. The emphasis of this program is on home assignments that are therapist-directed and designed to develop personal resources.
- Most insurance companies cover the cost of this program.
- Our therapists are licensed in the state of Washington and are active members of the Washington State Physical Therapy Association.
Discuss your symptoms or needs with your physician, then call for an appointment. Take the right steps to relieve your stress.
