Helping You Find Relief from Headaches
Our physio sessions can help you manage recurring headaches or migraines so you can get back to your day with more ease and less worry.
At Livewell Health, our experienced physiotherapists will figure out what’s really triggering the pain. Tight neck muscles, weak shoulder or postural muscles, or excessive stress on the neck joints can contribute to your recurrent headaches.
Joint stiffness and normal spinal changes may make pain worse, especially when combined with long-term habits or other health conditions. We try to understand what’s behind your headaches, not just to mask the pain. We’ll then create a simple plan that works for your lifestyle and health goals. Our physio for headache may include easing tight muscles, strengthening your postural muscles, loosening stiff joints and learning how to engage the right muscles to support your head and neck.
Our experienced physiotherapists are trained to accurately diagnose and treat the underlying causes of your pain, ensuring long-lasting relief and prevention. By the end of your session, you'll receive a personalised plan to address your specific concerns and manage them effectively moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
01I’ve had headaches for years, can physio still help?
Yes, definitely. A lot of people come to us after trying everything else. Once we understand what’s driving the pain, whether it’s your neck stiffness or poor postural control, there’s often a lot we can do to make things more manageable.
02What actually happens in physio for migraine or headaches?
We start by asking about your symptoms and what your days look like. From there, we use a mix of hands-on care, gentle exercises, and movement therapy to start working on your mobility. Sessions are designed to be practical and tailored to your body.
03How quickly will I start to notice a change?
Some people feel relief in the first few sessions, especially when we address tension in the neck or shoulders. If your pain’s been around a long time, it might take a bit more time to strengthen up the muscles to produce long-term effects, but we’ll be there every step of the way.
04Will this mean I can stop using headache meds?
That’s our hope but we won’t rush it. As our physio sessions reduce the physical causes of your headaches, many people find they can rely less on medication. We’ll always work alongside your doctor to make sure it’s right for you.
