This clinic specialises and is dedicated to treating migraine, headaches, neck pain, concussion and vestibular disorders. We  use innovative approaches and leading edge therapies of the highest quality standards to return you to normalcy and a symptom-free state.  This is all done with gentle hands-on techniques by a veteran physiotherapist with over 30 yrs. clinical experience and a current member of a multi-disciplary concussion team here in Christchurch.
​
The most common head pain conditions that can be treated medication-free include...
  • Migraines
  • Tension headache (also with accompanying neck pain)
  • Ophthalmic (Eye) Migraine
  • Sinus Pain
  • Menstrual migraine
  • Cluster headache
  • Migraines from ingestants (food/drink)
  • Vestibular migraine
  • Trigeminal neuralgia
  • Concussion head pain

One of the treatments we use is the Watson Headache® Approach.
The diagnostic accuracy of the Watson Headache® Approach is unparalleled. It can confirm if disorders in the upper neck are responsible for headache or migraine and determine the exact nature of the disorder as well as which spinal joints are involved. There is no guesswork and no cracking or manipulation. Its unique and powerful feature involves temporary reproduction and resolution (easing) of usual head pain.

​The initial evaluation is critical particularly if you have had many other types of therapies. The reason for this is three-fold; the first is that we look for signs or clinical findings commonly overlooked by others. The second reason is to make sure there is no underlying damage to the tissue which makes treatment unsafe. Thirdly, to rule out secondary headaches that are coming from more serious pathologies.  We use new techniques not used by many and that are leading-edge and scientifically proven to alleviate head pain.

You will leave with a properly aligned head & neck with your atlas bone orthogonal which often is successful in alleviating symptoms like some headaches, neck pain, posture problems, head rotation problems, bending issues and others.
