Headache and migraine physiotherapy treatment at Movement Improvement Brisbane

Headaches & Migraines

Cervicogenic headaches - those originating from the neck and upper cervical spine - are a common but often misunderstood condition. Many people suffer for years without realising physiotherapy can provide lasting relief.

Our approach targets the root cause of your headaches, not just the pain. By restoring normal movement and function in the cervical spine and surrounding musculature, we aim to significantly reduce headache frequency and intensity.

Chronic & Persistent Pain

Living with long-term pain is exhausting. At Movement Improvement, we take a whole-person approach to chronic pain - addressing the physical, neurological, and movement-related factors that contribute to your experience of pain.

We understand that chronic pain is complex. Our physiotherapists work with you to identify dysfunctional movement patterns, restore your deep stabilising system, and progressively build your capacity to live the life you want.

Our chronic pain approach:

1

Thorough assessment

Identify the root cause of your pain - not just the site of pain

2

Movement retraining

Restore normal movement patterns and deep stabiliser function

3

Gradual loading

Progressive, evidence-based loading to build long-term resilience

Paediatric physiotherapy assessment at Movement Improvement Brisbane

Paediatric Physiotherapy

Children aren't small adults. Growing bodies have their own patterns of injury and their own milestones, and what looks like clumsiness, sore knees or a reluctance to keep up can often be explained - and treated.

We assess and treat babies, children and adolescents, working alongside parents to explain what's happening and what to do about it. Sessions are practical and play-based where appropriate, with a home program that fits into family life rather than adding to it.

Our Director, Belinda, is DNS qualified in both Adults and Paediatrics, bringing Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation principles to how we assess and retrain developmental movement in children.

We help with:

  • Developmental delay & milestone concerns
  • Toe walking & gait concerns
  • Growth-related pain (Osgood-Schlatter, Sever’s)
  • Hypermobility & coordination difficulties
  • Adolescent sports injuries & load management
  • Post-injury & post-surgical rehabilitation
