Damien Cummins has been practicing physiotherapy for 29 years, having graduated from Sydney University in 1990. His junior years as a physio began at John Hunter Hospital and later in 1993 at Howzat, Newcastle. In late 1993, he ventured overseas to America where he spent a total of nine years practising physiotherapy, interspersed with global travels including an 18 month journey through Europe, Africa and Australia. While in the USA, he lived in Michigan and North Carolina and gained a different perspective on physical therapy and health care.
Damien returned to Australia in 2002. From 2004 onwards, he has focused his time growing a successful physiotherapy practice in Mayfield and continuing his education journey to support his passion for treating head and neck pain.
Damien is credentialed in the McKenzie (Mulligan) method(s) of mechanical spinal treatment. He is also a Certified Mulligan Practitioner and a Level (3) III Watson Headache® Certified Practitioner.
He has been focusing on spinal treatment 3 over the past 15 years. (He is a Level (3) III Watson Headache® Certified Practitioner.)
Over the past 3 years, Damien has found a special interest in treatment of headache and migraine through his training with Dean Watson in Sydney and the Watson Headache® Institute. This has prompted him to be the founder of The Newcastle Headache Clinic in 2014 with the goal of providing an alternate evidence based treatment to drugs and injections for headache and migraine sufferers.
