Who is Headache Management for?
At Essential Health Physiotherapy, we recognize that headaches can significantly disrupt your daily life. Our Headache Management service delivered by our experienced physiotherapists is designed to identify the root causes of your headaches and provide effective, personalized treatment plans to alleviate your discomfort.
Headaches are a common condition, affecting over 90% of individuals at some point in their lives. They can vary in intensity, frequency, and type, with common forms including tension headaches, migraines, and cluster headaches. Factors such as muscle tension, stress, poor posture, and certain medical conditions can contribute to the onset of headaches.
Our experienced physiotherapists conduct comprehensive assessments to determine the specific factors contributing to your headaches. Your tailored treatment plan can help to reduce your headache frequency and intensity, improve posture and muscle function, enhance your understanding of personal headache triggers and effective coping strategies and decrease reliance on medication through natural pain relief methods.
Our team stays updated with the latest evidence-based practices to ensure you receive the highest standard of treatment. We work collaboratively with you to develop a management plan that aligns with your goals and lifestyle.
The best way to take control of your headache is to book in an appointment with Essential Health Physio now. You can take the first step toward lasting relief.

FAQs
These are the commonly asked questions our patients have for us.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
Doctor's referral is not necessary for your physiotherapy appointment. All of our physiotherapists are very well-equipped in skills to assess, diagnose and formulate a management plan. If medical input is required, we would actively communicate with your selected General Practitioner (GP) and specialist.
What would you expect in the first appointment?
Your initial assessment involves a thorough assessment to help determine an accurate diagnosis of your presenting concern. A structured plan would then be discussed with you to maximize your recovery. Treatment is usually commenced in your initial appointment. However, in order to ensure we deliver the most effective management to your condition, treatment might be delayed to the second session due to the need of extensive assessment if your condition is complex.
What do I wear for my appointment?
To assist with assessment and treatment, please wear shorts or clothes that can easily expose the regions where assessment and treatment are required. This allows your physiotherapy session to be carried out in an efficient manner.
Do you bulk bill?
Unfortunately, the Physiotherapist service does not receive funding from the government. However, the following patients are eligible for bulk billing service upon the approved number of sessions. This includes:
- Patients receiving treatment under CTP claim or WorkCover claim
- DVA holders
We attempt to keep the out of pocket fee low, however due to the increasing cost of operating our clinic, we no longer bulk bill patients with Enhanced Primary Care Plan (EPC Plan). Please be aware that there is gap fee of $29.70 for patients with EPC plan.
Is there any risk involved with the session?
We use modern and gentle techniques to provide treatment for pain relief. Our physiotherapists would endeavour to minimize and avoid any adverse event during the session. Some treatments can cause minor side effects (including slight discomfort, bruise or mild exacerbation of symptoms) that usually subside within 24 to 48 hours. If there is any preference of your treatment choice to minimise any discomfort, please do not hesitate to discuss it with our friendly therapist.
