Headaches can range from a dull, nagging ache to intense migraines that interfere with your day-to-day life. If you’re looking for a natural approach to ease your pain, acupuncture for headaches may offer a safe and effective solution.
Acupuncture involves the insertion of fine needles at specific points in the body to help balance energy and improve blood flow. For headaches, this can:
Reduce muscle tension and stiffness in the neck and shoulders.
Improve circulation to areas contributing to pain.
Calm the nervous system and reduce stress, which is often a trigger for headaches.
We believe you deserve relief—not quick fixes, but rooted paths toward clearer days. Here’s our process:
We’ll discuss your headache history, triggers, and lifestyle to create a tailored treatment plan.
Acupuncture needles are placed in targeted areas to release tension, promote relaxation, and support the body’s natural healing. Sessions are usually comfortable and relaxing.
We’ll provide tips on posture, stretching, stress management, and lifestyle changes to complement your acupuncture treatment.

Tension headaches
Migraines

Darryl RowbothamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I hadn't visited a chiropractor for a few years, so it was long overdue. I chose Advanced pain relief because the clinic incorporates traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, and chiropractic treatment. After just one session with Jonathan, I could feel the results, his years of experience, and professionalism made me feel as ease as soon as I walked through the door, I can't recommend his clinic enough, I wouldn't go anywhere else. Thanks Jonathan ???? David GonzalezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been seeing Jonathan for at least 3 years, if not longer. He has helped my debilitating neck and back issues every time I see him. The relief he provides is immense and I cannot recommend him enough. I have always been a physically active person and his treatments allow me to continue my life uninterrupted. James Lloyd-KnibbsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Always friendly and a nice relaxing space. Julian StreeterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jonathan has been my chiropractor for 10 years. He has helped me recover from whiplash following a bad car accident. Jonathan also helped my wife following a knee injury. We both highly recommend Jonathan. He’s an expert chiropractor who really cares about helping his patients. Ben TossellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been going to Jonathan for a few years now - first to sort my tennis elbow which has never flared up since. I recommend to everyone I play with who have also visited and recommend. Clare SinfieldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After being completely dismissed by the NHS and left to suffer with relentless hip pain for over six months, I finally found Jonathan—and I genuinely cannot thank him enough. From the moment I walked into his clinic, he was attentive, professional, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. In just TWO visits, he did what no one else could: completely fix the pain that had been affecting my daily life for half a year. No gimmicks, no false promises—just skilled, targeted treatment that works. No pressure to have repeat visits, which takes the stress out of the situation. If you're in pain and feel like you've run out of options, see this man. I only wish I had found him sooner. Highly, highly recommend. Sachel GrantTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would highly recommend attending the clinic. Dr Jonathan has been outstanding. Supporting and guiding me with the various nuances and alignments that my body is facing. His manner is very professional yet warm. He makes me feel at ease even when my body is being manipulated or needles being put in. The exercises I am given to support the healing have also helped. Russell blightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Have been going for many years, very good service, highly recommended. Christine DickensTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jonathan has been my chiropractor for many years now and whenever I’ve had a problem he’s always listened and corrected this, wouldn’t go anywhere else and would always recommend him, very approachable and friendly.
