Neuromodulation is recognized as a key component in migraine treatment. Modulating the neurological signalling in the brain.


The Watson Headache Approach is a manual therapy approach to assessing and treating migraine. It is safe and does NOT involve potentially injurious manipulations of the cervical spine. Rather it is a targeted, joint specific sustained pressure, by way of the therapist's thumbs.


It feels good and works! We are in this case, releasing joint restrictions as well as desensitizing the nerve input (relevant to the area of one's familiar migraine) that congregates at the trigeminocervical nucleus, known as the final common pathway for nerve input on it's way to sometimes, manifesting as migraine.
