Welcome to the Melbourne Headache + Concussion Group

Built Around One Focus

Melbourne Headache + Concussion Group was built around a single focus: delivering specialist care for conditions that are too often mismanaged, misunderstood, or simply not taken seriously enough.

Our clinicians are trained osteopaths certified in the Watson Headache Approach®, a research-supported manual therapy that targets the cervical and neurological mechanisms driving the majority of headache and migraine conditions.

For concussion, we use objective testing tools trusted in elite sport, including Sway Medical and follow Australian Institute of Sport endorsed guidelines at every stage of assessment and recovery.

We are based within Williamstown Health + Lifestyle, one of the largest allied health clinics in Melbourne's west, and have spent over 25 years building trusted relationships with GPs, neurologists, schools, and sporting clubs across the region.

Providing

Individualised Recovery Management Plans

No two patients recover the same way, even when the diagnosis is identical. What differs is the person, their history, their work, their sport, and what recovery actually needs to look like for them.

Every patient at MHCG receives an individualised management plan built around their specific assessment findings and recovery goals. That includes clear guidance on returning to work, school, or sport, with structured milestones and objective reassessment at key points.

We have spent over 25 years developing shared care relationships with GPs, neurologists, specialists, schools, and sporting clubs across Melbourne. When your recovery involves more than one clinician or organisation, we make sure everyone is working from the same plan.

What We Specialise In

Featured services

Chronic Migraine

Frequent or constant head pain that has persisted for months, often without a clear explanation or effective treatment. We assess the cervical and neurological factors most commonly driving recurring symptoms.

Concussion

A brain injury that requires proper assessment and structured management, not just rest and monitoring. We assess the systems most commonly affected and build a recovery plan around what we find.

Baseline Concussion Testing

Pre-season objective testing for athletes that establishes normal brain function, balance, and cognitive performance before any injury occurs. Essential for informed return-to-sport decisions if concussion happens during the season.

Post Concussion Management

For patients whose symptoms have persisted beyond the initial recovery period. We identify what is driving ongoing symptoms and provide a structured, individually managed pathway back to full activity.

Headaches

From tension-type and cervicogenic headaches through to complex conditions that have not responded to previous treatment. We assess what is contributing and treat it directly.
