A Common Question
A clear scan can feel reassuring. But it can also feel frustrating when headaches, dizziness, pressure, nausea, or sensitivity keep returning.
Scans are important for ruling out serious conditions.
However, they do not always explain recurring symptoms involving:
Nervous system sensitivity
Upper neck involvement
Dizziness and sensory symptoms
Already Tried Treatment?
That is very common. Many people who come to us have already tried physiotherapy, chiropractic care, osteopathy, massage, or posture-based treatment.
That does not automatically mean the neck was irrelevant. In some cases, the upper neck may not have been assessed as part of a headache and migraine-specific process.
This does not mean every headache or migraine is caused by the neck. It means the neck may be relevant for some presentations.
For some people, the upper neck may be one part of the broader clinical picture rather than the sole cause.
What To Expect
Your initial assessment may include:
Treatment may begin on the day if clinically appropriate and time allows. If more assessment is needed first, your practitioner will explain why.

If unsure whether your symptoms are appropriate for our clinic, speak with your GP or book a 15-minute call first.
Common Questions
Questions people often ask before booking their first assessment.
No. People book with us for recurring headaches, migraine, dizziness, vestibular symptoms, neck-related headache patterns, hormonal migraine patterns, post-concussion symptoms, and other recurring presentations.
That is common. You do not need to diagnose yourself before booking. The assessment is designed to help clarify what may be clinically relevant.
Clear scans can be reassuring, but they do not always explain recurring symptoms. Bring any scan reports you have to your appointment.
Many people have. The assessment is designed to review your symptoms, previous care, upper neck findings where relevant, neurological signs, and broader contributors together.
No. Medication decisions should always be discussed with your prescribing doctor or pharmacist.
If you are ready for a full appointment, book an initial assessment. If you are unsure, start with the free assessment or a 15-minute call.
If headaches, migraine, dizziness, or vestibular symptoms keep returning, start with a structured assessment.
