Testimonials

I'd highly recommend David Saligari! After months of migraines, following a head injury and with liitle improvement from medication. - David quickly identified an issue with my neck and treated it with precise manipulation that provided instant relief. He is exceptionally skilled and outstanding at what he does!

I had a great experience with David and would highly recommend this service. I have a complex neurological history and a neurologist referred me to David. In recent years migraines and atypical migraines had become part of my daily life. I found him to be very professional and passionate about headache management. He helped me to understand why they were happening and after some treatment and advice I can now go many weeks and months without an issue. I am very grateful for his input.

Top class treatment from David, a gentleman. He has eliminated all my pain in my back, chest and neck!

I attended David’s clinic over a period of about 6 months as I was quite often having really bad headaches and migraines. David helped me to understand the reason I was having these headaches and gave me exercises to help alleviate the tension causing them as well as ways to avoid recurring headaches and migraines. I would highly recommend my treatment with David.

I seen David for help with my migraines and it helped me better understand why they would happen. He helped me with how I would handle them. We tried acupuncture and it was beneficial.

Outstanding. Every interaction I’ve had with both reception and clinical staff has been excellent. The team is so knowledgeable and friendly. I’ve suffered from migraines for about 15 years. They were getting progressively worse until I visited a similar headache clinic when living overseas. Now I’ve been coming to see David since moving back to NI about a year ago. What these guys can do has genuinely changed my life - Migraines and headaches used to be a constant fear for me and stopped me from doing so many things. Now I barely have to think about it!

Outstanding Expertise and Care. Following an accident I suffered a neck injury and concussion which led to severe migraine, dizziness, nausea and significant balance disturbance. The dizziness in particular caused constant disequilibrium and made normal daily life extremely difficult. From the very beginning, Dave clearly understood what was happening. I was experiencing multiple symptoms, and he was able to recognise both their source and how they were connected. His understanding of the relationship between the neck, balance and the vestibular system was exceptional, and he immediately put in place a treatment plan that addressed the problem as a whole. His ability to recognise and treat the complexity of symptoms was incredibly reassuring at a time when I was struggling to make sense of what was happening. What stood out most was the breadth of his expertise and the care he showed throughout the process. He ensured I was connected quickly with the right neurologist so that the appropriate medication could be introduced alongside the physiotherapy, allowing everything to work together effectively. Over time the improvement has been remarkable. I am now fully functioning again in life without dizziness or nausea, and my headaches are significantly improved. Dave’s professionalism, knowledge and genuine care made an enormous difference during a very difficult recovery. I would recommend him without hesitation. The wider team also deserve a mention: Charlotte and Ellie on reception always made me feel so welcome and supported, which meant a great deal during the recovery process.

I have been a patient of David’s for the last 4 years following a recommendation from a colleague. I have suffered migraines and headaches for 15 years, seeing neurologists both privately and NHS, and trying other physio clinics. The improvement I have seen since working with David is unbelievable, and I have gone from 3-4 migraines per week with persistent daily headache to 1 migraine every 3-4 months and a headache once or twice a week. David was able to identify the offending joints in my neck within the first appointment, and we have been working on these since. I have also been able to stop all preventative migraine medication. Whilst my progress has been slow, I am incredibly grateful for David’s expertise and my quality of life has improved dramatically. David is very friendly and genuinely cares about his patients. The reception staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend The Headache and Migraine Centre!

A medical consultant referred me to see David for debilitating headaches. David took a thorough history, examined me and then manipulated my neck and neck. The headache disappeared like magic. I am still doing the daily exercises he prescribed and continue to be headache free over a year later. Really grateful and recommended.

After weeks of constant headaches that were also affecting my eye, leaving me unable to sleep and with no relief from painkillers, I was honestly at my wits end affecting my day to day life. I’d been to my GP, A&E, and even paid privately for a consultant, but nothing showed up on scans and I still had no answers. As a last resort, I was recommended to see David, a physio who specialises in headaches—and I’m so grateful I did. From the moment I met him, he was kind, friendly and reassuring, and really took the time to listen to everything I was experiencing. He quickly identified that the root of the problem was actually coming from my neck, which no one else had picked up on. With regular treatment, I started to improve week by week. The pain reduced, my sleep returned, and I finally started to feel like myself again. It genuinely gave me my quality of life back. I still go back to see him occasionally for maintenance or if anything flares up, and he always manages to help. I can’t recommend David enough, if you’re struggling with headaches or anything similar, he’s absolutely worth seeing.

Highly recommend David at the Headache and Migraine Centre. I’ve been seeing him for over 3 years after a neck injury from a car accident caused ongoing headaches and migraines. His knowledge and approach are on another level — he focuses on treating the root cause, not just the symptoms. I’ve seen a real improvement in both frequency and severity, and I now feel much more in control of managing it day-to-day with his help. If you’re dealing with headaches or migraines linked to neck issues, this is the place to go.

I attended several sessions with David to address migraine and neck pain that had been significantly disrupting my daily life as a full-time working mum. Over the course of a few weeks, David successfully resolved the issue, and I’ve not experienced a migraine since. I had a very positive experience and would highly recommend him.

I had 12 sessions with David over 9 months because of daily incapacitating headaches. David identified the problem was a joint at the base of my skull.As well as his treatment, he educated me about the anatomy of this area and helped me understand the importance of posture and avoiding stress.He showed me a simple exercise and built my confidence in managing this condition by avoiding obvious triggers such as lying on the sofa to watch a movie or carrying heavy shopping bags and to not feel bad if I had to take a paracetamol. I believe a combination of his treatment and being mindful of all the above have led to me being pain free for the last 6 months. I am forever indebted to David for his personal touch and gentle understanding.

Highly recommend David for anyone suffering from headaches. Thank you David so much.

I went to David as I was experiencing debilitating headaches that affected my daily life. After a course of headache treatment my headaches no longer occur and this has had a positive affect on my quality of life. I highly recommend the headache and migraine centre to anyone experiencing similar issues.

I can honestly say that visiting David for physio was a game-changer for me. After having my second child, my migraines became unmanageable. At my worst point they were happening once a week and I was losing a day each time as I had to just lie in bed in the dark to try and get some relief (pretty hard to do with a baby and a toddler). David was recommended to me by a consultant and attending physio changed things significantly. David worked on my neck and trouble areas and provided me with exercises to ease my symptoms. I now only lose a couple of hours to my dreaded migraines and they are happening much less frequently. If you want tools to manage your migraines then I would speak to David - his passion for this area comes across and he is a lovely genuine guy, can’t thank him enough.
