Headache and Migraine Course in Warwick

In late 2008 Rachel Hickman invited me to present a Level I Headache and Migraine course to the Physiotherapy staff at Warwick Hospital, UK. The staff welcomed me warmly – with a hot cup of tea (as I got drenched walking from my accommodation to Warwick Hospital!).  The feedback indicated that the course was well received …

Excerpts from feedback forwarded to Manipulation Association of Chartered Physiotherapists:

“ … Practical, obvious passion from Dean for topic, very good book/handout, 3D models; Balance between theory and practical, visual aids-spinal models, Patient demo; Approachable tutor, it was useful when Dean came round and evaluated handling techniques, tutor summarising was very useful indeed, good help; Practical element and Dean coming round to help everyone individually. Theory around classification of headache; Thorough systematic kept referring back – reinforcing information taught early on; Tutor able to reference techniques to specific patients and situations, practical skills practised and corrected. Felt able to ask to clarify…”

As part of my courses I examine a couple of headache or migraine sufferers – a highlight of this course was the examination of a young woman with a 14 year history of menstrual migraine. It was important for delegates to witness the temporary reproduction and lessening of familiar headache/migraine pain during the examination. This confirmed her neck as the source of her ‘menstrual migraine’. I have since learnt from her and the treating physiotherapist that she has had a period since the course without her usual ‘menstrual migraine’ – I expect this improvement to be maintained, but will report back in a few months.

Cheers
