A suboccipital compression pad, comprising:
- a pad member configured to contact an occipital region of a patient;
- and
- a pair of securing straps extending respectively from opposing ends of the pad member, at least one of the securing straps being provided with a fastening member at a distal end thereof and configured to fasten the at least one of the securing straps to the other securing strap proximate a forehead of the patient to compress the pad member to the occipital region;
- wherein each of the securing straps are configured with proximal ends diverging into upper and lower rear straps to form an open space such that portions of the respective securing straps are located above and below a patient's ears, without covering the ears, when the securing straps are fastened together,
- wherein the upper rear straps are configured to be selectively attachable to different locations of a back side of the pad member, and wherein the lower rear straps are configured to be selectively attachable to different locations of the back side of the pad member.
