Can neck tension or jaw clenching cause headaches?

Headaches don’t always start in the head. In many cases, they’re linked to tension building in the neck, shoulders or jaw, areas where we tend to hold stress without realising it.

When these muscles stay tight for long periods, they can create pressure patterns that trigger headaches. This is especially common for people who spend long hours at a desk, clench their jaw, or carry stress through their upper body.

Rhys explains why this happens and why addressing the underlying tension can often make a big difference.

Last Saturday, we had the pleasure of popping down from the clinic to be there for the Community Lifting Day hosted by Velocity Gym. It was fantastic to see so many people coming together to train, test their strength and support one another in such a positive atmosphere.

Being neighbours with Velocity means we get to see first-hand the dedication and encouragement their community brings to training every day - a big well done to everyone who took part and a thank you to Velocity for hosting such a great event.

FAQ: Slipped disc or muscular back pain?

Back pain can come from many different structures in the body, muscles, joints, ligaments or the discs between the vertebrae. Because the symptoms can sometimes feel similar, it’s not always easy to tell the difference on your own.

One key sign practitioners often look for is referred nerve pain. When discomfort travels from the lower back into the glutes or down the leg. That can suggest irritation around a spinal disc rather than a purely muscular issue.

Matt explains a couple of things you can notice at home and why a proper clinical assessment is still the most reliable way to understand what’s really causing your pain and how best to treat it.

FAQ: Why does my back hurt when I wake up?

Morning back pain is something we hear about a lot in clinics, and there isn’t always just one reason behind it.

For many people, it can relate to how the body responds overnight. When we’re sleeping and not moving, inflammation can build up around irritated joints, muscles or nerves. That’s why stiffness and aching are often most noticeable first thing in the morning.

It can also be influenced by sleeping position, previous injuries or other underlying factors. The key is understanding why it’s happening now, especially if you’ve always slept the same way without issues before.

Jolene explains some of the most common reasons we see and why a proper assessment can help uncover what’s really going on.

Sometimes the path into a profession starts with personal experience. For Matt it began with discovering how powerful massage can be - not only for relaxation, but for genuine relief when life’s physical demands start to add up.

As his own experiences shifted from simply enjoying treatment to relying on it during a demanding stage of life, the impact of thoughtful, hands-on care became clear. That experience planted the seed for a career change. Matt now brings that same sense of care and intention into his work. Combining skilled hands with a genuine desire to help people move more comfortably and feel supported in their recovery.

A different approach to treating pain.

The Jing Method is all about timing, reasoning and understanding how the body responds. Treatment begins by calming the nervous system, allowing the body to relax before deeper work begins.

This approach often feels different from what people expect from traditional sports massage - slower, more measured techniques help create lasting change by working with the body.

When the nervous system feels safe and settled, muscles respond more effectively, and that’s where meaningful progress starts to happen.

Meet Matt, the newest addition to the Balance360 team!

Matt specialises in supporting people living with chronic pain using the Jing Method, an integrative approach that blends techniques from both Eastern and Western practices. His treatments are designed to address persistent tension, muscle restriction and the patterns that can build up over time.

Sessions are structured, targeted and purposeful, combining hands-on therapy with practical guidance so clients leave not only feeling relief, but with tools to support their recovery between appointments.

It’s a thoughtful, evidence-informed approach to pain management, focused on long-term improvement, not just short-term relief.

Meet a very important member of the team…

Every clinic has its essentials: treatment rooms, equipment, expert practitioners and of course, a skeleton who’s seen it all.

Toe-knee has been part of the Balance 360 family from the very beginning. He’s helped explain countless aches, pains and anatomy lessons, and over the years he’s become something of a clinic icon.

Patients have even joined in the fun, bringing in seasonal outfits and little accessories to keep him involved in the celebrations.

There’s nothing better than hearing how supported and relaxed someone feels after their first treatment.

Gail’s approach to reflexology is always thoughtful and personalised, taking time to understand each individual and the reasons behind their appointment. It’s about creating a calm, comfortable space while offering insight that genuinely helps.

We love that this client has already booked their next session, a wonderful reminder of how powerful dedicated time for wellbeing can be.

Our care goes far beyond symptoms. Every person who walks through our doors brings their own story, physically, emotionally and mentally, and that whole picture matters.

For some, pain has taken over daily life. It can affect mood, hope, confidence and the belief that things can improve. Supporting someone through that, helping them regain comfort, control and optimism is one of the most meaningful parts of what we do.

The kind messages and thank you cards we receive are always humbling. But ultimately, it’s about helping people feel heard, supported and able to move forward again. That’s why we do what we do.

Gratitude means the world to us

We never expect anything beyond the trust our patients place in us, but the kindness we sometimes receive is incredibly humbling. From homemade treats for the team to thoughtful handmade gifts, these gestures remind us just how meaningful the work can be.

For us, it’s never about the gifts themselves - it’s about what they represent; someone feeling better, feeling heard, or feeling supported enough to want to say thank you in their own way.

Every card, every kind word, every small token of appreciation is a reminder of why we do what we do. And we’re truly grateful to be part of so many people’s journeys.

Sometimes the journey starts with your own experience.

Jolene’s path into osteopathy began not as a practitioner, but as a patient searching for answers. What stayed with her wasn’t just the relief she experienced, but the way the whole body was considered, connected and understood.

That moment sparked something deeper: a decision to retrain, study extensively, and dedicate years to mastering the craft. For Jolene, osteopathy is a fascination with how the body works, adapts and heals (together with hundreds of hours of practice and a degree!)
