Cervicogenic Headache Part 1: An Anatomic and Clinical Overview
Kathryn L. Smith, PT Claire Horn, PT
Abstract: Cervicogenic headache is a headache arising from painful dysfunction of the upper cervical spine. This paper reviews current literature on the anatomy, etiology, clinical presentation and differential diagnosis of cervicogenic headache. Lower cervical spine levels and cervical soft tissue components will be incorporated where they have a direct influence on the upper three segments. Abstract.

Cervicogenic Headache Part II: Clinical Examination, Findings and Approaches to Management
Claire Horn, PT Kathryn L. Smith, PT.
Abstract: This paper reviews current literature on the clinical examination and approaches to management of cervicogenic headache using orthopedic manual therapy principles. Cervicogenic headache may present in combination with other headache syndromes. Careful examination by the orthopedic manual therapist will assist in differential diagnosis and clinical management of the syndrome. Intervention includes joint mobilization, soft tissue mobilization, retraining specific postural muscles groups and patient education.

The Effects of Muscle Energy Technique on Lumbar Range of Motion
Ronald J. Schenk PhD, PT, OCS, FAAOMPT Amy MacDiarmid, MS, PT John Rousselle EdD, PT, ATC.
Abstract: This study examined whether the application of a muscle energy technique (MET) to the lumbar spine could significantly influence lumbar extension range of motion in an asymptomatic population. Twenty-six volunteer subjects, with limited range of motion in lumbar extension, were randomly assigned to either a control group or a treatment group. Thirteen subjects in the treatment group underwent eight sessions with the muscle energy technique, two times per week for 4 weeks. An independent group t test was used to analyze the data. The mean changes in scores, between pretest and posttest, were compared for both groups. Statistical significance was found at the p < .05 level indicating that the MET group significantly improved in lumbar extension range of motion.
