The Headache Clinic @ TPP

Headaches can be more than just a nuisance—they can significantly disrupt your daily life. As experienced physiotherapists at Thornleigh Performance Physiotherapy, we’ve seen how targeted treatment can make a real difference. Many headaches actually stem from muscular tension, posture issues, or even joint dysfunction in the neck and upper back. By assessing these areas, we can identify the root cause rather than just masking the symptoms with painkillers. To learn what a headache is, explore here. If you want to understand more about the role of the trigeminocervical nucleus, find out more in this article written by our headache expert, Tom.

Our approach involves tailored physiotherapy techniques such as soft tissue release, mobilisations, dry needling, and corrective exercises designed to reduce muscle tension, improve posture, and restore proper movement patterns. This not only helps to relieve existing headaches but can also prevent them from returning. We work closely with you, and any tother treating practitioners, ensuring you have the tools and knowledge to manage stress and maintain good habits that support long-term relief. You can read more about our approach here.

If headaches are limiting your work, sleep, or quality of life, don’t just accept them as normal. Expert physiotherapy can guide you towards lasting relief and better overall wellbeing. At Thornleigh Performance Physiotherapy, we’re dedicated to making a difference, helping you get back to enjoying life headache-free.
