Our Integrative Approach To Your Headache Pain

Accessible, Flexible, Individualized Care.

We focus on offering on-demand integrative care that treats each person as a whole, working to enact lifelong change for chronic headache disorders. We take the time to really get to know you and your unique history.

Through shared decision-making, we work as a team to create your customized treatment plan. We listen, educate and empower you with the tools you need to heal.

Our Five-Pronged Integrative Approach

Conventional Medical Assessment

We use evidence-based clinical criteria to establish your diagnosis. We then recommend a personalized therapeutic program based on your unique medical history.

Lifestyle & Trigger
Assessment

We teach you how to keep a headache diary to monitor symptoms and discover potential triggers. We incorporate trigger modification into your treatment plan if indicated.

Sleep & Mood
Evaluation

We evaluate for mood disorders, insomnia, and sleep apnea. If needed, we can refer you for more in-depth testing and treatment. We work with a network of trusted physicians, including psychiatrists and sleep specialists.

Nutritional & Metabolic Evaluation

We assess your body composition and nutrition. We may check vitamin levels and screen for underlying disease states. We design a program to include dietary supplements, nutritional modifications, and a fitness plan.

Structural & Musculoskeletal Assessment

We evaluate for potential pain contributors from the neck and spine. We screen for hypermobility and other connective tissue disorders. Interventional procedures and/or complementary therapies such as physical therapy, yoga, and acupuncture may be recommended.

Let’s Create a Headache Toolbox

We treat headache by combining the best medications with evidence-based complementary therapies to build you a multi-faceted treatment plan.

Headache needs to be treated from different vantage points, so your toolbox needs to be customized with pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies.
