Recruiting studies
- NCT04722913Recruiting
Link between forward head posture and neck headache
This study looks at whether a specific neck/head posture (forward head position) is related to cervicogenic headaches. It may help researchers understand what posture and neck factors contribute to these headaches.
GizaAges 18–25 - NCT06731114Recruiting
Neck muscle release for cervicogenic headache relief
This trial tests whether releasing the sternocleidomastoid neck muscle on top of the usual suboccipital muscle release helps reduce headaches that start from the neck. If you have headaches with neck stiffness and pain rating of 4 or more, this study may help find a more effective treatment.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–45 - NCT07006454Recruiting
Neck glide techniques for headache from neck problem
This trial tests two different gentle hand-on-neck techniques to see which works better for headaches caused by a neck problem. It may help if your headache is linked to neck stiffness or injury.
IslamabadAges 18–44 - NCT07163208Recruiting
Laser therapy for headache from neck problems
This trial tests if different types of low-level laser light can help reduce headaches caused by neck issues. It is a non-invasive treatment option for people whose headaches have lasted at least three months.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–65 - NCT07366060Recruiting
Neck nerve treatment for headache from the neck
This study tests a procedure called pulsed radiofrequency on a nerve in your neck to see if it helps headaches that start from the neck. If standard treatments haven't worked for you, this might be an option.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07508410Recruiting
Mulligan vs Myofascial Release for Neck-Related Headaches
This study compares two hands-on therapy techniques—Mulligan mobilization and myofascial release—to see which works better for headaches that start from the neck. If you have neck pain on one side and headaches that get worse with movement, this trial may help you find relief.
KonyaAges 18–65 - NCT07526025Recruiting
Neck exercises for headaches caused by neck problems
This study tests two types of neck exercises to treat headaches that start in the neck and travel to the head. The exercises focus on strengthening neck muscles and retraining how your neck moves to reduce pain.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–45 - NCT06875869Recruiting
Pressure techniques for cervicogenic headache
This trial compares two different pressure techniques (ischemic compression and the Jones technique) to see which better relieves head pain that starts from the neck (cervicogenic headache). It may help if you are an adult aged 25 to 35 with neck-related headaches and specific tender points in your muscles.
Bahawalpur, Punjab ProvinceAges 25–35 - NCT06502951Recruiting
Treatment for headache and neck pain after whiplash
This study tests if combining spinal manipulation and dry needling can reduce headache and neck pain in people who have had whiplash from a car accident. It may help if you've had symptoms for more than 4 weeks.
Montgomery, AlabamaAges 18–65 - NCT07347730Recruiting
Trigger point injections for chronic headache from the neck
This study tests whether injections into muscle trigger points can reduce chronic headache pain that starts in the neck. It may help people who have not found relief from standard pain medications.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT07310823Enrolling by invitation
Manual therapy for neck-related headaches
This study tests if manual therapy (hands-on treatment) can help people whose headaches start from neck problems. If you have headaches at least once a week and limited neck movement, this trial may be an option.
GizaAges 20–40 - NCT07776275Recruiting
Headache study comparing neck pain patients with healthy people
This study looks at physical differences between people with cervicogenic headache (a headache that starts in the neck), people with chronic neck pain without headache, and healthy controls. By comparing these groups, researchers hope to better understand what causes the headache and which physical features are specific to it.
Istanbul, SefaköyAges 25–60 - NCT07309874Recruiting
Dry needling for headache relief
This study tests if a specific type of dry needling (using a thin needle on tight neck muscles) can help reduce headaches. You may join if you've had headaches recently and have tender muscles at the base of your skull.
Lubbock, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT07168512Enrolling by invitation
Release technique and exercises for cervicogenic headache
This trial tests whether a gentle hands-on therapy called myofascial release, alone or with exercises, can improve the neck curve, sleep, and mood in people whose headaches come from a neck problem. If you have headaches that start from your neck, this might help you find relief.
Gaza, Gaza StripAges 20–55 - NCT05617365RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 45 years+ - NCT07555873Recruiting
Osteopathic treatment versus physical therapy for neck and head dysfunction
This study compares two hands-on treatment approaches—osteopathic manipulation and physiotherapy—for chronic neck pain, headaches, and dizziness caused by cervical dysfunction. If you qualify, you'll receive one of these treatments and help researchers understand which works better.
