Headaches, Jaw Pain or Brain Fog That Won’t Budge? Cranial Treatment Could Be the Missing Link
If you’ve been living with ongoing headaches, neck tension, migraines, jaw pain, shoulder tightness, long COVID symptoms, concussion or neurological issues—and nothing seems to help—then it might be time to look beyond the standard approach.
Cranial treatment, guided by the Integrated Systems Model (ISM), offers a powerful and precise way to uncover what’s really going on—and help your body find its way back to balance.
Cranial treatment involves gentle hands-on work around the head, neck and upper spine to help release restrictions in the cranial bones and surrounding tissues.
These areas play a surprisingly big role in how we feel—from muscle tension and pain to brain fog, fatigue, dizziness and even immune function 🧠
When something’s not quite right in the cranium, it can impact movement, coordination, fluid drainage, and even how well your brain can “clear out the fog.” That’s why treatment here can lead to wide-reaching improvements in both body and mind.
This style of treatment could help if you’re experiencing:
✔️ Headaches or migraines
✔️ Neck pain or tightness
✔️ Jaw pain (TMJ)
✔️ Shoulder discomfort that hasn’t responded to usual treatment
✔️ Long COVID symptoms like brain fog, fatigue or dizziness
✔️ Concussion recovery
✔️ Neurological conditions affecting balance, focus or recovery
Using the ISM approach, our physio Kris looks for the primary driver—whether that’s a cranial restriction, pelvic imbalance, or something in between—and treats accordingly.
Kris is our only physiotherapist trained and experienced in delivering cranial treatment using the ISM framework. His approach is gentle, highly individualised, and designed to create lasting change—especially for those who’ve tried everything else without success.
He also considers how the cranial system influences glymphatic flow, which supports your brain’s ability to clear waste and regulate inflammation. This can be especially helpful in cases of brain fog, fatigue or post-viral symptoms 😊
If you’ve been feeling stuck and symptoms keep coming back despite everything you’ve tried, cranial treatment with Kris may help you finally turn a corner.
