​
We offer a comprehensive approach to headache relief, utilising a combination of chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and exercise.​
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our skilled chiropractors use gentle joint adjustments on areas of the spine that are not moving optimally, and are causing tight muscles, pain & nerve irritation. This can help alleviate the root cause of your pain, providing long-term relief.
​
Soft Tissue Therapy & Dry Needling
Soft tissue therapy, including massage and dry needling, targets the muscles and connective tissues that may be contributing to your pain and symptoms. By releasing tension and pain, increasing healing time and improving circulation. Therapeutic massage, trigger point therapy and myofascial release work can help relax tight muscles, reduce stress, and improve overall circulation, all of which are beneficial in preventing and relieving headaches.

Exercise Rehab & Stretches
Our chiropractors will also guide you through specific exercises designed to improve posture, strengthen muscles, and promote overall spinal health. All our hands on treatments include exercises advice and things that you can do outside the clinic to help your pain long term. Regular exercise can prevent pain, reduce tension and improving flexibility.
Common Causes of Headaches
Understanding the root causes of headaches is crucial for effective treatment. Some common causes include:
​
Tension and Stress
Tension headaches are often caused by stress, leading to muscle tightness and pain in the head, neck, and shoulders.
​
Poor Posture
Spending long hours hunched over a computer or looking down at your phone can strain your neck and upper back, contributing to headaches.
​
Spinal Misalignments & Tight Muscles
Misalignments in the cervical and thoracic spine can irritate nerves and lead to headaches, especially if the misalignment is causing restricted blood flow, tight muscles and pain.
​
Dehydration
Lack of sufficient water intake can cause headaches, as dehydration affects the body's ability to function properly. These kinds of headaches should go away once re-hydration occurs.
​
Dietary Factors
Certain foods and beverages, such as caffeine, alcohol, and foods with high levels of sugar or preservatives, can trigger headaches in some individuals. We can assist you with a maintaining a headache diary as well as how to identify and track these triggers.
