Participants will explore the causes\, epidemiology\, and distinguishing features of tension-type headaches\, cervicogenic headaches\, TMJ-related headaches\, sinus-related headaches\, migraines\, exertion headaches\, medication-overuse headaches\, thunderclap headaches\, and cluster headaches. Through a combination of lecture\, discussion\, and extensive hands-on practice\, therapists will learn how to identify key contributing structures\, perform appropriate special testing\, apply effective manual therapy techniques\, and provide evidence-informed home care. The course emphasizes differential assessment\, safety considerations\, and when to refer clients for further medical evaluation. Each headache type will be explored through a clinical overview followed by demonstrations and guided practical applications in pairs\, allowing participants to build confidence in both assessment and treatment planning. \nHeadache Types Covered  \nHands-On and Clinical Application:  \n\nTension-Type Headaches\nCervicogenic Headaches\nTMJ-Related Headaches\nSinus-Related Headaches\nMigraines\n\n\nClinical Information Only:  \n\nExertion Headaches\nMedication-Overuse Headaches\nThunderclap Headaches\nCluster Headaches\n\nLearning Outcomes  \nUpon completion of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nDifferentiate between primary and secondary headache types using clinical indicators.\nPerform targeted orthopedic and soft tissue assessments relevant to common headache presentations.\nApply manual therapy techniques safely and effectively to address contributing structures of tension-type\, cervicogenic\, TMJ-related\, sinus-related\, and migraine headaches.\nIntegrate patient education and home care strategies to support long-term management and prevention.\nRecognize red flags and determine when referral to another healthcare professional is warranted.\nConfidently develop treatment plans tailored to the unique mechanisms underlying each headache type.\n\nWhat to Bring \n\nPortable massage table (1 per 2 participants)\nFull table set-up:\n\nFace cradle cover (recommended)\nPillows or bolsters (optional)\nSanitation supplies (wipes\, hand sanitizer\, etc.)\n\n\n\n\nComfortable\, loose-fitting clothing\nNitrile gloves (TMJ Work)\nLunch\, snacks\, and water\nMassage oil\, lotion\, or preferred medium (optional)\n\nCourse Materials\nA comprehensive course manual (PDF) will be provided via email a few days prior to the start of the class for distribution to registered participants\, allowing attendees the option to print their own copy if desired or access digitally on a personal device. \nCertificate of Completion\nA PDF certificate will be emailed to participants within one week of course completion. \nAbout the Instructor\nLouise Hill\, RMT\, is a Registered Massage Therapist based in Moncton\, New Brunswick\, with a clinical focus on the assessment and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction and related head\, neck\, and jaw conditions. Since graduating with honours from Eastern College in 2016\, she has completed extensive post-graduate training and research in TMJ dysfunction\, concussion and whiplash management\, cervical biomechanics\, fascial release\, and intraoral techniques. TMJ-related treatments now make up a significant portion of her clinical practice\, and she receives regular referrals from dentists\, chiropractors\, osteopaths\, and other allied health professionals. \nAs Louise’s practice evolved\, she observed a strong clinical correlation between TMJ dysfunction and both headache and migraine presentations. This led to the development of a secondary clinical focus in treating head pain – including tension-type headaches\, cervicogenic headaches\, post-concussion headaches\, migraine headaches\, and headache disorders secondary to jaw dysfunction. Her interest in head and neck injury management began prior to entering the profession\, while working and training closely with competitive Muay Thai and MMA fighters at her father’s gym\, where concussions\, jaw trauma\, and whiplash-type injuries are common. Louise began her career working alongside a local chiropractor\, before opening her own clinic\, Therapeutics Ltd.\, in 2018. In addition to her clinical work\, she served as a Clinic Supervisor for the Massage Therapy Program at Eastern College for a year and a half\, where she oversaw student development in assessment skills\, treatment planning\, and professional standards. Outside of clinical practice\, Louise has a longstanding background in athletics\, including Muay Thai instruction and personal training\, and is an avid runner. \nREGISTER HERE: http://REGISTER HERE: https://www.anbmt.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Unravelling-Head-Pain-2026.pdf
