Migraine Headaches
If you feel like your migraines have too much control over your life, you are not alone. Many patients are not fully satisfied with drug therapy for migraine treatment or are frequently bothered by medication side effects. Now may be the time for you to consider a new direction. TMS Therapeutics in San Diego is excited to be offering TMS therapy as a treatment for migraine headaches. If you have at least one migraine per month, you may be a perfect candidate for this exciting new treatment option.
Classic Migraines: Commence with warning signs such as flashing lights and colours. In some cases, people experience double-vision or temporary, partial blindness. One may also experience a prickly, burning, or even a weak sensation on one side of the body. These symptoms may last about 15 to 30 minutes either before or in conjunction with throbbing head pains.
Common Migraines: Occur without warning signs. Common Migraines may commence more slowly than classic migraines, but may persist longer. The pains vary in location, but are generally localized to only one side of the head.
TMS AND MIGRAINES
- TMS has been successful at reducing the frequency and duration of migraines in patients.
- Relief from migraines was accomplished as a additional feature to the treatment protocols for depression.
- 10-20 high frequency TMS treatments administered over the left dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) are usually used.
- Please contact us directly to obtain further details.
*At this time, TMS is not FDA-approved for the treatment of migraine headaches, which would be considered an off-label application.
