Headache Chiropractic Treatment in Perth

---

Headaches are a common and often disruptive condition, affecting work performance, concentration, sleep, and overall quality of life. Many headaches—particularly tension-type headaches and cervicogenic headaches—can be linked to neck joint dysfunction, muscle tension, poor posture, stress, or prolonged desk and screen use. Symptoms may include tightness around the head or temples, neck stiffness, shoulder tension, and headaches that worsen with posture or sustained positions. 

At Step One Chiro, we provide evidence-based chiropractic care for headaches with a focus on identifying and addressing contributing musculoskeletal and movement-related factors. Rather than treating headaches in isolation, our approach looks at how the neck, upper back, posture, and nervous system function may be influencing your symptoms.

Chiropractic care for headaches may help to:

• Improve neck and upper-spine joint mobility
   
• Reduce muscle tension in the neck and shoulders
   
• Improve posture and movement patterns
   
• Reduce headache frequency and intensity

Many headaches are influenced by reduced mobility or muscle tension in the neck and upper back. For patients experiencing both issues, our chiropractic treatment for neck pain in Perth may be an important part of improving movement and reducing symptom flare-ups.
 

Treatment may include gentle chiropractic adjustments, soft-tissue therapy, targeted exercise rehabilitation, and practical ergonomic or lifestyle advice to help support long-term headache management.

Research supports the use of manual therapy and exercise-based care for certain types of headaches, particularly tension-type and cervicogenic headaches that originate from the neck. Chiropractic care is a drug-free and conservative treatment option that may help improve function, reduce symptom burden, and lower the likelihood of recurring episodes when headaches are related to mechanical or postural factors. 

Headaches can vary significantly in cause and presentation, which is why a personalised approach is essential. We take the time to assess your symptoms, movement patterns, and lifestyle factors to ensure your care plan is appropriate and evidence-informed. Whether your headaches are occasional or long-standing, our focus is on helping you move better, feel better, and reduce their impact on your daily life.
