What You’ll Learn:

  • How to systematically differentiate the most common headache types including tension, migraine, cervicogenic, and cluster headaches
  • Key red flags that indicate secondary or serious headache pathology
  • Evidence-based assessment strategies and clinical reasoning frameworks
  • Practical tools to improve diagnostic accuracy in your daily practice

Why It Matters:

Headaches are one of the most frequent complaints seen across clinical settings — yet it remains one of the most under-assessed. Missing a cervicogenic component or misclassifying a migraine can mean weeks or months of ineffective treatment for your patient. This course gives you the diagnostic clarity to get it right from the start.
