Comprehensive Headache & Migraine Assessment

We understand that living with persistent headaches or migraines can be overwhelming and isolating. Many of our patients come to us after trying numerous treatments, receiving incomplete diagnoses, or feeling dismissed about their pain. Our thorough assessment takes the time to properly evaluate your symptoms, understand their impact on your life, and create a clear path forward for managing your condition.

Who Is This Assessment For?

Chronic Headache & Migraine Sufferers

For those experiencing frequent or persistent headaches that impact daily life, work, or relationships. Whether you're dealing with tension headaches, migraines, or cluster headaches, we help create a comprehensive understanding of your condition.

Undiagnosed or Partially Diagnosed

For individuals who haven't received clear answers about their headache pattern or type, or who have received incomplete diagnoses. Our systematic assessment helps create a clearer picture of your condition.

Complex Presentations

For those whose symptoms may involve multiple factors such as jaw pain (TMJ/TMD), neck tension, or other orofacial pain. Our integrated approach considers the complete picture of your health.

Treatment-Resistant Cases

For individuals who haven't found relief through standard treatments or are looking for more comprehensive management strategies.
