Hippocrates recognized the syndrome called migraine, and he ascribed it to an imbalance of natural forces within the body. He wrote, describing a young patient, "Most of the time he seemed to see something shining before him like a light, usually in part of the right eye. At the end of a moment, a violent pain supervened in the right temple, then in all the head and neck, where the head is attached to the spine. Vomiting, when it became possible, was able to divert the pain and render it more moderate."

If you have found our website, you are still searching for answers.

The bottom line with any approach to Migraines or any other acute or chronic pain condition is pretty simple: Does it work, and does it last. Ask hard questions. Get the best you can find! Accept nothing less! Does it work? Will it actually end your headaches? Will it deliver progressive and lasting improvement over a short series of treatments or will it just temporarily mask the pain, requiring ongoing follow-up to realize any level of improvement? What are the risks? What are the potential side-effects?

The Victoria Headache approach, under development since 1987, is founded in the premise that the body has a system of positional and postural control ensuring that the head is held upright and pointing forward. It recognizes a broad spectrum of acute and chronic pain conditions including migraines, headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, idiopathic scoliosis, pelvic pain and hip pain as the body’s natural and predictable responses to a disruption of this system.

Our goal is to improve the quality of life of migraine sufferers and others by addressing the source of their pain rather than the symptoms. Concentrating only on the symptoms of migraines is like pumping air into a leaking tire, instead of fixing the leak. Our vision is to bring public awareness to a new and drug-free approach to Migraines, headaches and other pain conditions. It works, and it works well.

In the context of this protocol, migraines are seen more as a natural extension of a worsening myofascial tension pattern, and less as a separate and unique entity unto themselves. The body is out of alignment and constantly striving to correct itself. Without help, an unwinnable battle.

Drugs will never be able to correct a structural imbalance in the body.

There are two concepts to consider here: First, this pattern exists and its presence is apparently universal, and second; there is a definite identifiable link between this pattern and potential imbalances (= problems) throughout the body. It would explain why drugs could not possibly correct a structural fault, and why they have not been able to end headaches. In all the years of pharmalogical research and development, medical science has still not discovered a cure. It would make sense that correcting this structural imbalance could work where drugs could not.

How is the Victoria Headache Clinic approach different?

Quite simply, we can show you how and why your headaches are linked to your body’s alignment. We’ll show you how to correct your alignment and how to keep it corrected. We’ll show you how to end your headaches.

• We actively involve our patients in their own recovery process, giving them control over their pain.
• We have identified one common and apparently key structural asymmetry. We treat the source.
• Our protocol addresses and corrects this asymmetry, then teaches patients how to maintain the correction.
• It is entirely structural in approach and neither invites nor requires pharmaceutical involvement.
• It is a dynamic and progressive protocol. Our patients routinely improve between treatments.
• It is cost and time effective to all concerned.

Our mission is to make this available to everyone who stands to benefit from it and to everyone who wants to learn how to apply it.
