If you can use -me macros, use the commands .m1, .m2, .m3 and .m4.
.m1 is an offset from the top of the paper to the header, .m2
offsets from the header to the page's text. .m3 and .m4 are for the
bottom of the page.

If you can't use the -me macros, check out their code in
/usr/lib/tmac/tmac.e. Vertical motion is designated by
	\v'N'
You should be able to make a local macro copying the .m1
and/or .m2 definitions. If necessary, you should be able to
combine them into one macro, and also make a specific, rather
than a parameter offset distance.
