Is this familiar?
You have a family history of migraine or tension headaches and developed them as a teenager or young adult after a trauma or period of stress.

‘Life happens’ and you notice your headaches are more severe and occur more often.
Usually headaches start as occasional or infrequent and become more frequent and severe over time. This progression is very upsetting to the anyone who has headaches as is the fact that they can’t seem to get relief no matter what they try.
Like many people with chronic headaches you find yourself on a perpetual hunt for ways to get rid of them. And, if you are a professional creative or have a stressful job you love…how many productive days do you loose each month? You are not alone.

With well over 20 years in practice, we were trained by a pioneer in biofeedback therapy to eliminate and prevent chronic migraine and tension headaches. Once headaches are determined to be benign they don’t respond well to medication. Over the years 95% of our clients became headache free.
We’ve created a simple formula you can use to first stop severe headaches and then prevent them no matter what other treatments you have tried and no matter how long you’ve had them.
