We offer effective and comprehensive solutions to help alleviate the burden of headaches for our patients.

BOTOX® for Chronic Migraine

BOTOX® injections have proven to be a transformative treatment for adults battling the challenges of chronic migraines. Administered by one of our nurse practitioners, these injections work to block nerve signals that trigger migraine pain. This innovative approach goes beyond providing temporary relief during an active migraine–it focuses on preventing the onset of chronic migraines altogether.
Nerivio®

Nerivio® is the first and only FDA-cleared device to use Remote Electrical Neuromodulation (REN) to prevent and treat migraines. Nerivio is a wearable device that is drug-free and non-addictive, and clinical trials demonstrate it provides consistent relief of pain and associated migraine symptoms.
Nerivio® is safe and well-tolerated with no systemic side effects or concern for medication overuse. It can be used as often as needed for 45 minutes to treat a migraine attack or every other day for 45 minutes to prevent migraines.
gammaCore™

gammaCore™ is the first and only FDA-cleared non-invasive device to treat and prevent multiple types of headache pain via the vagus nerve. It’s small, handheld, and portable for quick and easy treatments whenever and wherever needed. It can be used to treat acute migraine pain or to prevent migraine attacks.
Prescription Medications

In some cases, prescription medications may be a component of your migraine management plan. Our certified headache specialists will carefully assess your medical history and symptoms to prescribe medications tailored to your individual needs. We prioritize your well-being and work closely with you to monitor any potential side effects, ensuring the effectiveness and safety of your prescribed medications.
