Posttraumatic headache treatment lacks standardization. This case study highlights osteopathic manipulative treatment as a viable option within a multidisciplinary approach for managing posttraumatic headache.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Osteopathic Medicine
Background:
- Posttraumatic headache (PTH) definitions and treatments are discussed but lack standardization.
- Spinal manipulation is supported for tension-type headaches and migraines, but its use in PTH is less documented.
Observation:
- A case study of a 38-year-old woman with posttraumatic headache is presented.
- The patient's treatment involved a multidisciplinary approach.
Findings:
- Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) was utilized as part of the patient's care.
- This approach integrated osteopathic principles and practice for PTH management.
Implications:
- This case illustrates OMT as a potential component of a comprehensive PTH treatment strategy.
- Further research into OMT for posttraumatic headache is warranted to establish standardized treatment protocols.
