At the Headache Center, we provide personalized treatments for migraines and other headaches. We take a complete approach to treatment, focusing on both physical and psychological aspects of each individual patient.

We strive to provide safe, effective, and individualized treatments that are tailored to the individual needs of each patient with the latest headache medicines currently available.

Our patient base is comprised of those suffering from acute headaches that are resistant to over-the-counter medications and have persisted for several weeks due to incomplete or incorrect diagnosis. Overuse of pain medications can also result in persistent headaches. Other reasons for daily headaches, besides lack of diagnosis, include hormonal conditions in women and trauma after accidents. If you are suffering from any other type of headache, please don't hesitate to contact us today.

Appointments are available within a week of inquiry at the latest.

Treatments

Migraine education

We provide our patients with information and resources including insight on awareness of the various triggers and symptoms of migraines, lifestyle changes that can help to prevent or reduce the severity of migraines, and the availability of treatments and medications. We also strive to educate our patients on how to better manage their migraine condition, identify their individual triggers, and together create an individualized treatment plan.

Cephaly Stimulator- User Programming

Cephaly Stimulator- User Programming is a type of therapy used to treat chronic headaches, such as migraines. This therapy involves the use of a device called the Cephaly Stimulator, which is a small, battery-powered device that is worn on the forehead. The stimulator delivers electrical impulses to the forehead nerves which helps to reduce the frequency and intensity of migraine attacks. The user programming feature of the Cephaly Stimulator allows the patient to customize their treatment by adjusting the intensity, frequency, and duration of the electrical impulses, a treatment that can be continued at home.

BOTOX INJECTIONS

Botox injections are used for migraine prevention because they can help to reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks. Botox works by blocking the transmission of pain signals from the nerves to the brain, reducing the intensity of the migraine headache. Botox injections are typically administered in the forehead, neck, and shoulders, and the effects can last up to three months. This procedure can be conducted in our office per the American Headache Society and American Academy of Neurology protocols.

Nerves Blocking

Nerves Blocking is typically done by injecting a local anesthetic or steroid along the nerve pathways to block the nerve signals. This technique can be used to provide short-term or long-term pain relief to cluster headaches.

Preventive Treatments

Half of patients with migraines need medicines to prevent attacks. A new group of medicines are now available replacing old antiepileptics, antidepressants and beta-blockers. A group of these like the anti CGRP compounds, oral or parenteral (SQ or IV) have less side effects and more effectiveness with more patients adherence and tolerance.
