What Murwillumbah Patients Come to Us For
Pain that chips away at your quality of life deserves more than short-term fixes. Our migraine clinic serving Murwillumbah provides drug-free, hands-on treatment grounded in decades of clinical experience. We help people across the Tweed Valley and surrounding region with:
- Dizziness: Vertigo, balance issues, or persistent light-headedness that makes day-to-day life harder. We offer dizziness treatment to identify and address the underlying cause.
- Menstrual Headaches: Targeted care for hormone-related headaches that follow your cycle.
- Cervicogenic Headaches: Neck pain that refers up into the head. Our neck pain physio helps Murwillumbah patients understand what's causing it and treat it.
- Cluster Headaches: Intense, short-lived headaches clustered around one eye, often with redness and tearing.
- Tension Headaches: That familiar tightening or pressing around the skull, often triggered by stress, screen time, or poor posture.
- Sinus Headaches: Dull, throbbing facial pressure linked to sinus inflammation or infection.
- Migraines: One-sided, pulsing head pain, often accompanied by nausea, light sensitivity, and fatigue.
- Jaw Pain & TMJ Dysfunction: Clicking, locking, grinding (bruxism), or jaw aching that interferes with eating, talking, or sleeping.
If you’ve been through other treatments without lasting results, our headache and migraine clinic near Murwillumbah may help uncover what’s been missed.
The Physio Murwillumbah Patients Make the Drive For
Lead physiotherapist Michael Hayward brings over 34 years of clinical experience treating headaches, neck, jaw, and vestibular-related (inner ear) conditions. He trained with internationally recognised leaders in the field, including Dr Dean Watson, Professor Mariano Rocabado, and Mark Latimer.
Michael employs the Watson Headache® approach, a precise, evidence-based method that targets the biomechanical causes most practitioners don’t assess for. From managing chronic migraines to dealing with a jaw that clicks and aches, you’re working with someone who has treated a huge range of these conditions.
Whether you’re travelling from the Tweed Valley hinterland, nearby Uki, or from Murwillumbah’s main streets near the Tweed River foreshore, the 40 to 45 minute drive to Bangalow is one our patients regularly describe as well worth it.


A Careful, Drug-Free Treatment Approach
Treatment at our clinic uses gentle, sustained pressure on specific points in the head, neck, or jaw to reduce brainstem sensitivity and correct the mechanical faults at the root of your condition. That means no cracking, no injections and no reliance on medication.
It’s a careful, targeted process that’s safe for most people and aimed at lasting results rather than just easing symptoms for a while.
Effective Care at Our Murwillumbah Headache Clinic
Most patients notice meaningful improvement within their first four to five sessions. We don’t lock you into extended treatment commitments unless you’re seeing real, tangible change. If progress isn’t clear by sessions four or five, we’ll reassess your plan and help you identify the best path forward.
With multiple 5-star Google reviews, people travelling to us from across the Tweed and Northern Rivers region, including the Murwillumbah area, report lasting reductions in how often their pain occurs and how severe it is.
