Neurofeedback for Migraines

NO MORE MIGRAINES. 
NO MORE DRUGS.

This pain is unbearable. The throbbing and the pulsing and the sensitivity to light. It hurts to walk, to move, and to hear sound. Day after day of this is too much and you feel desperate to control it. We understand and we have an option that can help!

If you have had a headache for more than four days that last up to three hours each day, you may be experiencing migraines. Some people get them once every few weeks. Others get migraines every week, or even every day. They often begin in childhood, but onset may also occur later in life. Either way, they are debilitating and can make day-to-day activities difficult to complete and weekend plans impossible to enjoy. However, migraines can be greatly reduced – both in frequency and in intensity – by regulating brain activity. At Grey Matters, we let your brain show us what may be contributing to the problem, and then create a custom migraine treatment plan to train your brain to stay in a calm, balanced state.
