Brisbane Headache & Migraine Clinics | Brisbane CBD - Spring Hill, Queensland

Lee S.

I'm being treated by Kevin.
I'm very happy with the genuine care provided and the relief I've experienced. I haven't needed my previous migraine medication since being treated at this clinic. I also have not experienced a migraine since treatment commenced. As a long-term migraine sufferer whom of late was suffering migraines in consecutive days and migraine medication was not effective, I was getting desperate to eliminate these painful episodes. Needless to say I'm very thankful and would highly recommend this clinic.

Many thanks

I have been a patient at BHMC for nearly two years. While the clinic may not be the right fit for everyone, I’d like to share my personal experience.

During my first visit, the clinicians assessed my neck to determine if they could treat my migraines and headaches. They assured me that they could help, so I decided to proceed with treatment, despite the high cost as an international student. I was desperate to find relief and wanted to avoid continuing to take Rizatriptan as it is the only OTC that works for my headache.

For the first few months, I attended two sessions per week, and initially, I felt some improvement. However, I’m unsure if the progress was due to the treatment or just a change in the season. There were months when my headaches were less frequent, but there were also periods where I experienced multiple headaches in a week.

I had hoped that after two years of treatment, my headaches would be reduced by at least 90% as advertised. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. At one point, I was so concerned that I decided to undergo a second MRI, which, though expensive, came back clean. It felt as though my treatment had reached its limit.

In August 2024, I sent the clinic an email stating that I would no longer continue the treatment, as it was still costly and my headaches persisted. It seems that I’ll have to learn to live with them.

I discovered BHMC through Google, and the positive reviews from other patients encouraged me to seek treatment there. I have no complaints about the staff and clinicians—they were always kind and professional. I can’t help but wonder if it’s just my particular condition that made the treatment less effective.

A suggestion for improvement: The headache calendar provided at the beginning of treatment should be more thoroughly monitored and reviewed by the clinicians, as it could offer valuable insights into the headache patterns and potential causes. Over time, the calendar tends to be neglected, and as patients, we lose interest in tracking it as well.

This is my experience after two years at BHMC.

I have been getting treatment for a couple of weeks now from this clinic with Mattias, and although the sessions are expensive and I was initially unsure of how success they would be, I have to say that it has been worth it there has been such a significant improvement in my headaches so far. Their techniques seem to be working and my tension headaches have almost completely gone and when I do get them they are noticeably less intense or they don’t last as long. Hoping that with continued sessions this will be the end of my headaches.

I would recommend to anyone who suffers from migraines to give Brisbane Headache and Migraine Clinic a go.
I have gone from having in average a migraine a week to less than one every 2-3 months. My migraines are from a neck/ shoulder injury.
My first initial appointment with practitioner Mattias McAndrew made me feel he understood my concerns/issues. Which is extremely important and worked out an unusual therapy for me! It given me a renewed interest in life. I am achieving new heights and experiences from the results of my visits.
Would highly recommend.

Life changing! I was sceptical at first having tried everything else to help with my headaches and migraines, but as my headaches had become almost daily with migraine frequency increasing also, and living on Panadol and Ibuprofen, I thought it was worth a try. After just a couple of appointments I noticed a vast improvement which has continued. While the appointment costs are an investment, it is definitely worth the money to improve my life.

I've had migraines weekly for over 10 years with no real relief from any prescription medication or help from medical practitioners, until i saw Dr Mattias. He has been an incredible help in finding the reason behind my migraines and is now in the process of fixing them.

I would highly recommend giving Brisbane Migraine and Headache Clinic if you are suffering from any sort of mirgaines.

From my first viewing of the BHMC website to my rehabilitation stage, I have been so impressed! With my background as a Physiotherapist, I knew what I was looking for but my treatment has surpassed expectations. My goal to become migraine free now seems possible. I have been a compliant patient during my treatment program in order to maximize the outcome. From the friendly, competent administration staff using efficient systems to the amazing knowledge & skills of Mattias, this Clinic provides an essential service to migraine sufferers. I highly recommend it!

I have been attending Brisbane Headache and Migraine Clinic for over a year and Mattias has really helped me. The occurrence and severity of my migraines and aura attacks have greatly reduced. I no longer have to take days off work to recover.
