Headaches With Pushups

In this episode of the Sports Rehab Success Show I discuss a recent case I had in the clinic.

The client was having frequent intense headaches which were provoked by exercises such as pushups, bear crawls, pullups and the rowing machine.

If he was to rest and avoid exercising or at least these movements the headaches did no present. Prior to his treatment with me he had experienced physical therapy before which included massage, chin tucks, upper trap stretching, self myofascial release, and traction. According to the client, no progress was made in these sessions which he did for multiple times a week of over a month.

But...That therapist never looked at the movements causing the problem in the first place!

Find out what we saw and did to get him back performing these exercises once again in the gym.
