What are Tension Headaches?
The most common form of headache experienced by Americans today. Statistics show, as many as 95% of the U.S. population has at least one episode of tension headache in their lifetime. Tension headaches are usually caused from muscle tension in your neck, shoulders and upper back. This tension is sometimes the result of poor posture, and, less frequently some sort of trauma (like a car accident).
