At Richmond Neurology we run a Migraine Management Program that offers comprehensive headache and migraine assessment and management
We can recommend preventative treatments and we have a strong focus on managing headaches acutely – even in the inpatient hospital setting. We have extensive experience in a wide range of intramuscular injections of antiinflammatories and nerve blocks to nerve endings that supply regions of the head and scalp
As part of our evaluation process, we will try to ensure that any serious causes of your headache disorder have been ruled out. Then we develop a management plan for your specific headache disorder including education about what we know about the causes, the potential triggers of the headaches and a discussion about the variety of treatment options
This may also require focusing on lifestyle changes including diet, exercise, sleep habits and mindfulness based approaches
