Headache Therapy in Meridian, ID

Chronic headaches are one of the most common complaints that lead patients to the doctor. There are six different categories of headaches, not associated with an underlying medical condition:

• Cervicogenic Headaches: the pain usually starts on one side of the neck and travels forward over the head
• Cluster Headaches: the most unbearable type of headache with pain usually in the front of the head near one eye
• Chronic Paroxysmal Hemicranias: pain usually in the front of the head near one eye and spreading to the neck
• Tension-Type Headaches: classic generalized headaches usually described as pressure or tightness
• Migraines Without Aura: start as a dull, usually throbbing headache at the front of the head on one side (sometimes shifting) with pain ranging from mild to severe
• Migraines With Aura: same as migraines without aura but with warning symptoms before full headache onset
