An ice pick headache is an uncommon headache disorder that causes a sudden stabbing headache. This pain lasts for a few seconds and comes unexpectedly. People who experience such headaches equate the pain to being stabbed in the eye or head with an ice pick. In several such headaches, the stabbing pain lasts less than 3 seconds.
Patients having forward neck and shoulder posture due to mouth breathing, tongue ties or other causes show a rotation in the upper cervical vertebrae especially C1(Atlas) which can contribute to headaches as well.
If the cause is your TMJ, treatments aiming at the root cause can help ease headache pain and allow you to take precautions to prevent future headaches. We need to focus on a neuromuscular balance that can be achieved with myofascial massage, LLLT, myofunctional therapy, GNM orthotics and teeth alignment., When muscles become less inflamed, the pressure is then taken off the nerves and headaches are decreased drastically. We believe that lowering the threshold of excitation of the trigeminal nerve by putting the muscles in the most relaxed position is what contributes to treatments being more successful. Additionally,physical therapists and chiropractors , can help with the alignments of the C1 vertebrae and postural issues that are contributing to the headaches. It helps to decrease all kinds of headaches.
