Advanced Relief for Chronic and Treatment-Resistant Headaches

Migraines are more than headaches — they are a neurological disorder that can disrupt your work, relationships, and quality of life. When traditional medications fail to provide consistent relief, many patients are left suffering through repeated attacks, sensitivity to light and sound, nausea, and emotional burnout. Ketamine therapy offers a modern approach for migraine relief by targeting the brain’s pain and sensitivity pathways rather than simply masking symptoms.

Understanding Migraines

Migraines are caused by abnormal pain processing within the brain. Over time, repeated migraine attacks can lead to increased sensitivity in the nervous system, making the brain overreact to normal stimuli.

Common migraine symptoms include:

  • Throbbing or pulsing head pain

  • Nausea or vomiting

  • Sensitivity to light and sound

  • Visual disturbances (aura)

  • Neck and shoulder pain

  • Cognitive “brain fog”

  • Fatigue and irritability

How Ketamine Therapy Helps Migraines

Ketamine therapy targets the brain’s pain processing system and may help calm overstimulated nerve pathways.

Ketamine may help by

  • Reducing migraine frequency

  • Lowering pain intensity

  • Decreasing sensory sensitivity

  • Interrupting migraine cycles

  • Calming overactive neural circuits

  • Improving sleep and mood

  • Reducing reliance on pain medications

  • Treating anxiety and depression related to migraines

Who Can Benefit From Ketamine Treatment?

Ketamine therapy may be helpful for patients with:

  • Chronic migraines

  • Medication-refractory headaches

  • Cluster headaches

  • Tension headaches

  • Migraines with aura

  • Post-concussion headaches

  • Pain with comorbid anxiety or depression
