Had Enough of Your Headaches?

Break Free from Headaches—Experience Lasting Relief at Nexus Bodywork Clinic in Malvern East

Causes of Headaches & Migraines

Headaches and migraines can arise from various causes, many of which are linked to lifestyle factors. One common cause is tension and muscle strain, often due to poor posture, especially when sitting at a desk for extended periods. This strain affects the neck, shoulders, and upper back, leading to tension headaches. Emotional stress is another significant factor, as it can cause muscle tightness and trigger both headaches and migraines. Dehydration is a frequently overlooked yet common headache trigger, while inconsistent or poor-quality sleep can also lead to recurring headaches and migraines. Additionally, diet plays a crucial role—certain foods, along with excessive caffeine or alcohol, can provoke headaches, as can deficiencies in essential nutrients like magnesium.

Understanding the root cause of your headaches is essential for effective treatment. At Nexus Bodywork Clinic in Malvern East, our expert team is dedicated to identifying and addressing the underlying factors contributing to your discomfort, providing you with long-lasting relief.

I've long been the owner of a dodgey back, family trait. About 2 years ago I had sciatica symptoms on my left side. Months of physio and gym work to resolve the debilitating pain. Almost like flicking a switch, once the sciatica was resolved, I had discomfort on the right side. If I stood still for more than a minute my right hip, lower back wound through kinda spasm, collapse, and a limp came about. I've been using chiro to manage the issue as well as a work around, management, avoiding doing things. I also had no insight into how to fix the problem. I did a PT session but quickly figured out it was likely not nuanced enough for the glute weakness/instability I have. I stumbled upon an ad on socials for Nexus, and thought this sounds niche enough to work. Blake listened to my story, symptoms, looked at my range of motion and stance. If you've ever seen a detailed bike fit conducted, Blake's visual assessment was similar to this, which gave me confidence. 3 weekly sessions, dry needling, cupping, trigger point/release, manipulation, some targeted stretches to do. He's located and treated the core issue. Targeted treatment, wow what a difference. I'm getting a glimpse at what normal for me looks like. After months of compensation, management and avoidance. I came to Blake with a bunch of muscular niggles keeping me off the bike. It was like he hit a magical reset button. Back on the bike, niggles located, addressed. Without getting ahead of myself, I feel like I've turned a corner. Blake is the missing piece of the puzzle, I'd happily refer and friends dealing with issues that can't be easily ironed out. I rarely do Google reviews, but happy to provide feedback for the true problem solver. Blake truly fits this category.

Blake has been nothing but exceptionally supportive and helpful throughout my CRPS healing journey. His work is honest and thoroughly professional all whilst being engaging and educational. I wouldn’t bother with anywhere else, honestly.

Blake is amazing. Have gone from barely being able to run 50m without pain, to now able to run multiple 400m blocks non-stop and pain free is beyond my wildest dreams. He genuinely cares and listens and offers the best advice and guidance. Everything he does is tailored specifically for you and your situation - if it is the type of training you are doing, how committed you are and what your pain tolerance is. He's been such a huge help in my ongoing maintenance and health issues, I can't say enough about how great he is!

Sammie’s massages are other worldly! She manages to get into every fibre of every muscle and creates an opening in the body that I have not found other therapists able to do. Sammie’s healing is gold to me…

Nexus was my life saver. I had terrible lower back pain and saw nexus advertisements. I decided to give them a go and I am so happy I did. My back feels so much better. At the end of every session I am looking forward to the next.
