HEADACHES AND MIGRAINES

Migraine pain is most often felt in the temple, but it may be experienced anywhere in the face, head or neck.

So, what puts the ache in headache? The pain sensitive structure of the head is the culprit. These are the arteries of the brain and skull, the tissues surrounding the head veins, the dura matter covering over the brain, and certain nerves called cranial nerves. When these parts are inflamed or stretched, pulled or under pressure, any type of headache may occur.

Dr. Parker takes a different approach to the treatment and prevention of migraines and headaches. After a thorough neurological exam, the Dr. determines which part of the nervous system is not functioning properly.
