Neurofeedback and Migraine Pain

A migraine is no ordinary headache. Many of us suffer a headache once in a while. We take some over-the-counter medications, then continue with our day, pain free. A migraine, on the other hand, often occurs with intense pain, nausea, vomiting, and visusal aura. Over-the-counter medications may offer some relief from a migraine, but they are often inadequate and may trigger future migraines. Neurofeedback as a treatment for migraine is well supported by clinical evidence. Data shows migraine symptoms lessen and diminish over time when treated with neurofeedback therapy.

Dr. Stanga Functional Medicine is staffed with some of the best migraine doctors in San Antonio TX.

Who Suffers Migraines?

According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), more than 10% of the worldwide population suffers from migraines. Anyone, at any stage of life may suffer migraines, however, women are estimated to be 3 times more likely to experience migraines than men. As a matter of fact, a very high percentage of chronic migraine sufferers are women who experience their first migraine symptoms as teenagers. Scientists believe that genetics is a major contributor to this difference of gender risk, though the root cause of migraines is not well understood.
