TEDx Talk:
"The Perils of Pushing Through Your Headaches"
Dr. Amelia Scott Barrett, MD
Stanford-trained Neurologist
Quick summary of the TEDx:
We've learned that every headache does a little bit of harm, through a process called "chronification." This is what happens when you push through your headaches.
Here's what chronification looks like on fMRI:
Normal Brain ----> Chronification Brain
Take "The Headache Quiz' to find out if this is happening to you, and what you can do about it.
The solution?
Find the hidden causes of your headaches + migraines, so that you can truly recover, rather than just cover them up with medications.
And you can do that from home.
Here's how this approach helped Pilar:
" I used to be a 6 to an 8 on a pain level every day... I am now, 3 months later, a 2 to a 3. I could not believe the difference."
And here's how it helped Alyssa:
"I definitely did see the 50% reduction in headaches."
