With locations in Albert Park and Brighton East, our migraine clinic in Melbourne offers detailed assessment, diagnosis, and management of headache conditions.

Common Headache Symptoms Treated by Our Migraine Chiropractors in Melbourne

If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, our Melbourne headache clinic can help provide relief:

  • Persistent headache or migraine pain
  • Neck pain and stiffness
  • Dizziness or vertigo
  • Scalp tenderness
  • Pressure in the forehead, temples, or skull base
  • Neck tightness or tension

  • Sound or light sensitivity
  • Headache accompanied by nausea

In our busy and stressful society, headaches are widely accepted as part of everyday life. But did you know that there are around 200 different types of headaches? While many over-the-counter drugs provide immediate symptom relief, they rarely treat the underlying causes of your pain.

Our migraine chiropractors in Melbourne specialise in identifying, treating, and addressing the root causes of headaches and migraines, providing long-term solutions rather than just quick fixes.

Types of Headaches Treated at Our Melbourne Headache Clinic

Approximately 75% of all “innocent” headaches (those without an underlying medical problem) have a cervicogenic component. This means headaches are frequently caused from the cervical (neck) joints and soft tissues of the head, neck, and shoulders.

Tension-Type Headaches

More common in women, tension headaches present with mild to moderate, diffuse pain on both sides of the head, often extending into the neck and shoulders. These headaches can last for days to weeks and reoccur as many as 30 times per month. Our chiropractor headache specialists in Melbourne offer targeted care for tension headaches.

Cervicogenic Headaches

Affecting all genders equally, cervicogenic headaches start in the neck and spread to the head, usually on one side. The pain is frequently described as moderate to severe, chronic, and episodic, triggered by neck movement and posture. Patients may also experience restricted range of motion and pressure in the upper neck (C0–C3). Our migraine treatment in Melbourne addresses these underlying neck problems.

Migraine Headaches

Migraines are severe headaches that affect women seven times more frequently than men. The pain usually affects one side of the head, around the temple, and the eye, often described as pulsing or throbbing. Migraines can include nausea, vomiting, light and sound sensitivity, and vision problems, lasting anywhere from 4 to 72 hours. Our Melbourne migraine clinic provides specialised treatment for these draining conditions.
