Trained Watson Headache® Practitioner
Biography
Meet Marco Lin, a clinician at the Brisbane Headache and Migraine Clinic who is dedicated to supporting people living with headaches, migraines, dizziness, and complex neck-related disorders. He understands how frustrating and exhausting persistent symptoms can be, especially when they begin to affect work, family life, and day-to-day activities. Marco works closely with his patients to help them feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their recovery journey.
With a background in clinical exercise physiology and physiotherapy, Marco brings a strong understanding of movement, spinal function, and rehabilitation to headache care. He has a particular interest in how the cervical spine, jaw function, and vestibular system interact, and how these areas can contribute to ongoing head and neck symptoms. Known for his calm and reassuring manner, Marco focuses on creating a clear and comfortable treatment experience where patients feel confident asking questions and actively participating in their care.
Credibility
Marco holds a Bachelor of Clinical Exercise Physiology from Queensland University of Technology and a Master of Physiotherapy Studies from the University of Queensland, providing a strong foundation in biomechanics, rehabilitation, and spinal health.
He has completed ongoing post-graduate training in vestibular rehabilitation and has earned recognition as a trained Watson Headache® Practitioner, further enhancing his expertise in managing headache and cervicogenic symptoms.
Through his work in private practice, Marco has gained extensive experience managing spinal conditions, upper cervical dysfunction, jaw (TMJ) disorders, and cervicogenic contributions to dizziness and headaches. He is committed to delivering thoughtful, evidence-based care and continually builds on his knowledge to ensure patients receive safe, up-to-date, and tailored treatment.
Philosophy
Marco believes that effective headache and dizziness care starts with listening. He takes time to understand each person’s story, concerns, and goals before developing a treatment plan. His approach is centred on thorough assessment, gentle and appropriate hands-on therapy, targeted exercise, and practical education.
By helping patients understand what may be contributing to their symptoms and giving them clear strategies to manage their condition, Marco aims to reduce uncertainty and build confidence. His goal is not only symptom improvement, but helping patients feel more in control of their health and supported every step of the way.
