Break Free from Migraine Pain

Picture this: You're getting ready for a night out with friends- hair done, outfit perfect, excitement building. And then suddenly...BOOM. A migraine hits. The throbbing pain takes over, the nausea sets in, and the light becomes unbearable. Instead of laughter and memories, you're lying in a dark room, defeated, disappointed, and cancelling plans yet again because of the disabling pain migraines bring.

HAVE NO FEAR! ADIRONDACK TOTAL CARE IS HERE!

What is a migraine?

A migraine is a type of neurological headache that can last anywhere from a few hours to several days. Symptoms often include:

• Throbbing head pain

• Sensitivity to light

• Visual disturbances

• Neck pain or stiffness

• Fatigue and irritability

Migraines can be triggered by stress, hormones, sleep changes, certain foods, and even weather changes.

Why do some people get chronic migraines?

Some individuals experience 15 or more headache days per month-known as chronic migraines. This can be linked to:

1. Overactive pain pathways in the brain

2. Tight or irritated nerves around the head and neck

3. Muscle tension i the shoulders or cervical spine

4. Hormonal Changes

5. Genetics

Chronic migraines often require medical treatment, not just lifestyle changes.

AND THATS WHERE ADIRONDACK TOTAL CARE COMES IN HANDY!

We take comprehensive, personalized approach to diagnosing and treating migraines. Here are some of the advanced options we offer:

1. Medication Management

   We help identify the right combination of preventive medications to reduce migraine frequency and intensity. Patients often benefit from a structure treatment plan rather than trying random over-the-counter options.

2. Trigger point injections

   For patients who carry tension in the neck, shoulders, or scalp, trigger point injections can relax the irritated muscles that contribute to migraine cycles.

3. Occipital Nerve Blocks

   These injections target the greater and lesser occipital nerves at the base of the skull. They can:

-Dramatically reduce migraine frequency

-Calm nerve irritation

-Provide fast relief for stubborn pain

Many patients experience relief within minutes to hours.

4. Botox for Chronic Migraines

   If you suffer from 15 or more headache days per month, Botox is an FDA- approved treatment that can significantly decrease migraine days.

   Botox works by:

   -Relaxing overactive muscles

   -Reducing nerve sensitivity

   -Interrupting pain signals

   Treatments are quick and results typically last up to 3 months.
