Understanding Migraines and How We Can Help
Migraines are more than just severe headaches; they are a complex neurological condition that can significantly impact your quality of life. Common symptoms include throbbing pain, sensitivity to light and sound, nausea, and even visual disturbances. For many, these episodes are not just occasional inconveniences but frequent and debilitating occurrences.
Treatment Options for Migraine Relief
At our clinic, we specialize in innovative and effective treatments to help manage and alleviate migraine symptoms. One of the most transformative options we offer is Botox therapy. Approved by the FDA for chronic migraines, Botox works by blocking pain signals and relaxing muscles, preventing migraines before they start. Patients who receive regular Botox treatments often report fewer migraine days and less intense symptoms.
In addition to Botox, we offer a variety of other modalities tailored to each patient’s unique needs:
- Trigger Point Injections: Target specific areas of muscle tension to reduce pain and stiffness.
- Dry Needling: Performed by Dr. Joel Verzosa, this technique uses thin needles to release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and alleviate pain associated with migraines.
- Lifestyle Counseling: Identify and address potential triggers such as diet, sleep, and stress.
- Physical Therapy: Work with our skilled DPT, Joel Verzosa, to strengthen muscles and improve posture, which can help alleviate migraine-related tension.
- Hormone Balancing Therapy: For patients whose migraines are linked to hormonal changes, we provide bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).
