Headache and Migraine Clinic

for Adults

While Brainchild serves primarily children and teens, the Headache and Migraine clinic is open to adult patients.

Migraines are one of the most common neurological conditions, yet they often go untreated or under-recognized. Around 30% of women and many men experience migraines at some point in their lives, but because the symptoms are invisible, they are often not taken seriously. At Brainchild, we understand how deeply headaches and migraines can affect daily life, and we’re here to help you find relief and regain control.

Our Approach

A full look at what’s going on
We start by getting to know you: your symptoms, routines, triggers, and everything in between. Understanding your story helps us build a plan that truly makes sense for you.

Treatment that goes beyond medication
There are more options for migraine care than most people realize. These include lifestyle changes, prescription treatments, noninvasive neuromodulation devices, Botox injections, and evidence-based nutraceuticals, all tailored to what works best for you.

Support that continues
Migraines can change over time, and your care should too. We stay connected, adjust plans as needed, and are building systems for urgent support so you never have to manage severe pain on your own.

A calmer kind of care
Our space was designed to feel peaceful and low-stress, with soft lighting and plenty of time built into each visit. The goal is simple: to help you feel better, inside and out.
