The evaluation covers spinal alignment and cervical joint mobility, along with muscle tension through the neck and upper back. Dr. Bronstein also gathers information about the headache itself: where it starts, what triggers it, and how often it occurs. Structural findings paired with symptom history produce a clearer picture than either alone.
Patients preparing for the visit can help by paying attention to their headache patterns in the days beforehand. Noting frequency and pain location, along with what seems to bring episodes on gives Dr. Bronstein a richer starting point for the assessment.
