💙Celebrating 40 Years of Julie Faulks at Proactive Physiotherapy 💙

After an incredible 40 years of dedication, care, and leadership, our much-loved Clinical Director Julie Faulks will be finishing up at Proactive Physiotherapy.

For four decades, Julie has been a constant presence, a fierce advocate for her clients, and the backbone of our clinic. She has helped generations of people move better, heal stronger, and regain confidence in their bodies. Her knowledge, compassion, and commitment have shaped not only Proactive Physiotherapy, but the lives of countless clients and team members along the way.

Julie’s impact cannot be measured in years alone — it’s felt in every success story, every therapist she’s mentored, and every client who walked through our doors and left feeling supported and empowered.

While we will miss her dearly, we are so grateful for the legacy Julie leaves behind and wish her nothing but happiness and fulfilment in her next chapter.

Our clinic will continue to operate as normal, proudly carrying forward the standards and values Julie spent 40 years building.

Please join us in celebrating Julie and wishing her all the very best 💐💙

Last week was Headache and Migraine Week, and before we wrap up, here’s one final tip that can make a big difference:

🪑 Posture matters!
Sustained slouching or a forward head position can increase tension in your neck and upper back, which may trigger or worsen headaches and migraines. Try this simple check-in during your day:

Small posture adjustments throughout the day can help reduce strain and support a calmer, happier head!

If you’d like guidance or a posture assessment, our team at Proactive Physiotherapy / Cairns Headache & Migraine Clinic is here to help.

💆‍♀️ The Watson Headache Approach 💆‍♂️

This week is Headache & Migraine Week – the perfect time to shine a light on proven treatments that can make a real difference.

Developed by Australian physiotherapist Dr. Dean Watson (PhD), the Watson Headache Approach is a scientifically validated manual therapy that reduces brainstem sensitivity – the underlying cause of many headache and migraine conditions.

At the Cairns Headache and Migraine Clinic (powered by Proactive Physiotherapy), our practitioners are trained in this world-leading approach. It is the only hands-on technique developed specifically for headaches and migraines, and research also supports its benefits for:
✨ Nausea & vomiting disorders
✨ Vestibular migraine
✨ PPPD

Unlike other treatments, the Watson Headache Approach targets the root cause of primary headaches – an overactive brainstem – giving real, lasting relief.

📍 Book an appointment with our team this Headache & Migraine Week and take the first step towards a headache-free life!
