cPhD Research:

Kelly Heideman (Honours student in the Department of Psychology at Monash Univeristy), in conjunction with Professor Paul Martin who is head of the "Conquer Headaches" program at Southern Health, is conducting a research project on whether avoiding the triggers of headaches is the most appropriate advice for preventing headaches.

Kelly is seeking people over the age of 18 who suffer from headaches at least once a week on average, to fill out a few short online questionnaires (weblink is: http://spppm-cf.med.monash.edu.au/surveys2010/kellyh/ ) in relation to headaches, which will take 10-20 minutes and is anonymous.

Ethics approval for this project, 'Development of a questionnaire for assessing the history of headache triggers avoidance' has been granted. (Ethics approval number: CF10/1324-2010000704).

Diagnosis & Treatment

The Headache Clinic was established in Adelaide, South Australia, in 1991. Staff at The Headache Clinic have undertaken and are committed to a 12 month formal and intensive training program in the assessment and management of headache and migraine. This along with comprehensive clinical experience provides an unparalleled option for those headache and migraine sufferers in whom relevant cervicogenic (neck-related) dysfunction has been identified … whilst technical expertise can be taught, success depends on how it is used – there is no substitute for experience.

The Headache Clinic

At The Headache Clinic we believe that every headache or migraine sufferer has the right to know their headache diagnosis as precisely as possible, to know the nature of their headache disorder, its outcome and possible types of treatment.

Importantly at The Headache Clinic we recognise that not all headache comes from disorders of the neck and that headache may have more than one cause. The emphasis on the neck as a source of headache does not and will not blind us to the possibility of other factors as the cause of headache or migraine.

The aim of The Headache Clinic is to provide responsible, quality and effective neuro-musculoskeletal therapy in the diagnosis and management of cervicogenic (neck-related) head pain by:

• supporting headache and migraine sufferers in determining the cause of their head pain and symptoms
• identifying relevant cervicogenic (neck) dysfunction (disorders) as the cause of or contributing factor to headache or migraine
• improving the assessment and management of relevant cervicogenic disorders in headache and migraine
