Understanding Headaches
Headaches are one of the most common neurological complaints, ranging from mild discomfort to debilitating pain. Common types include tension headaches, migraines, cluster headaches, and secondary headaches caused by underlying conditions. Our clinic specializes in diagnosing the root cause of your headaches and creating tailored treatment plans.
Our Headache Management Services
1. Comprehensive Diagnosis
Accurate diagnosis is the first step to effective headache management. We offer:
Detailed Evaluations: In-depth medical history and
symptom assessment.
Advanced Diagnostics: Neurological exams, imaging
(e.g., MRI, CT), and blood tests when needed.
Headache Classification: Identifying specific
headache types (e.g., migraine, tension, cluster) for targeted treatment.
2. Medication-Based Treatments
Medications can prevent or relieve headache symptoms:
Acute Treatments: Over-the-counter or prescription
medications like ibuprofen, triptans, or ergotamines for immediate relief.
Preventive Medications: Beta-blockers,
antidepressants, or anti-seizure drugs to reduce frequency and severity of chronic
headaches.
Personalized Plans: Our specialists prescribe
medications suited to your headache type, frequency, and health profile, minimizing side
effects.
3. Lifestyle and Behavioral Therapies
Non-medication strategies can significantly reduce headache frequency:
Trigger Identification: We help you identify and
avoid triggers such as
stress, dehydration, poor sleep, or specific foods.
Stress Management: Techniques like
mindfulness, relaxation training, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT).
Sleep Hygiene: Guidance on improving sleep to
prevent headache onset.
Nutrition Counseling: Dietary recommendations
to avoid food-related triggers.
4. Interventional Treatments
For chronic or severe headaches, we offer advanced interventions:

migraines, reducing headache frequency.
Nerve Blocks: Targeted injections to relieve pain
in specific headache types, such as cluster headaches.
Neuromodulation: Non-invasive devices like
transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for migraine relief.
5. Support for Chronic Conditions
Chronic headaches, such as migraines or medication-overuse headaches, require specialized
care:
Multidisciplinary Approach: Collaboration between
neuropsychiatrists, neurologists, and pain specialists.

plans to reduce dependency on acute medications.
