Suffolk Park
Whether you’re starting the day on Alcorn Street or heading to Tallow Beach, headaches, jaw pain, neck tension and dizziness can throw off your whole routine. Even when you’re simply grinding through another day, you don’t have to be in pain. Patients from Suffolk Park make the short trip to Bangalow Headache Neck & Jaw Clinic, just 15–17 minutes up Bangalow Road, because they’ve decided they want more than another short-term fix.
If it’s recurring migraines, a jaw that clicks and aches, unexplained dizziness or neck pain that won’t ease, our headache clinic near Suffolk Park uses a natural, evidence-based approach to find and treat the real cause.

What We Assess and Treat for Suffolk Park Patients
Pain that nags at you while you work, sleep or drive deserves proper, personalised attention. Our migraine clinic serving Suffolk Park patients offers drug-free, hands-on care built on decades of clinical experience.
We help people across the Byron Shire and Northern Rivers region with:
- Dizziness: Vertigo, balance difficulties, or light-headedness that makes daily life harder. We identify and treat the underlying cause and find a lasting solution.
- Menstrual Headaches: Hormone-related headaches that follow your cycle, assessed and managed with targeted care.
- Cervicogenic Headaches: Neck pain that refers upward into the head, often misidentified if you don't know what to look for.
- Cluster Headaches: Brief, severe headaches that concentrate around one eye, usually accompanied by redness or tearing.
- Tension Headaches: The familiar pressing or tightening sensation around the skull, often triggered by stress, posture, or screen time.
- Sinus Headaches: Dull, throbbing facial pressure connected to sinus inflammation or infection.
- Migraines: One-sided, pulsing head pain that often comes with nausea, light sensitivity, and fatigue.
- Jaw Pain & TMJ Dysfunction: Clicking, locking, grinding (bruxism), or jaw aching that affects eating, talking, or sleeping.
If you’ve tried other treatments without lasting results, our headache and migraine clinic near Suffolk Park may help uncover what’s really behind your symptoms.
Qualified Headache Physio & Experience Suffolk Park Patients Rely On
Lead physiotherapist Michael Hayward has over 34 years of clinical experience treating headaches, neck, jaw, and vestibular-related (inner ear) conditions. He trained alongside 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. If you’re dealing with chronic migraines, a jaw that’s clicked for years or dizziness no one can explain, you’re working with someone experienced enough to find what others have missed.
From the residential streets of Clifford and Brandon to the beachside end of Suffolk Park, patients often tell us they wish they’d come to our Bangalow clinic sooner.


Hands-On Treatment That Works Without Cracking or Medication
We don’t use spinal manipulation, injections or medication. Treatment involves gentle, sustained pressure on specific points in the head, neck, or jaw to reduce brainstem sensitivity and address the mechanical faults driving your condition.
It’s a careful, targeted process. It’s safe, well-tolerated and built around long-term results, not short-term symptom relief.
Real Progress for Effective Change
Most patients notice meaningful improvement within the first four to five sessions. We won’t ask you to commit to an ongoing treatment plan unless you’re seeing real, measurable change. If progress isn’t clear by sessions four or five, we reassess and help you work out the best path forward.
With multiple 5-star Google reviews, patients from across the Byron Shire, including those making the short drive from Suffolk Park, consistently report lasting reductions in pain frequency and severity, often after years of trying other approaches.
