Introduction

Cervicogenic headache (CGH) is a form of headache that originates in the neck and refers to the head. Dysfunction in the upper cervical spine is recognised as the source of CGH REF. However, the upper trapezius has a clear pain referral pattern to the head, so it too should be considered when assessing and treating CGH. KAPLAN.
