Migraine

A migraine is a type of headache characterised by recurrent attacks of moderate to severe throbbing and pulsating pain on one side of the head. It is often accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to light and sound.

Migraines can be debilitating and during an episode, they can render you unable to conduct any of your normal activities.

We can prescribe medication that will help to treat the headache. We can also help you to identify the triggers of the migraines and reduce their frequency by advising you on important lifestyle changes that you can make. Where migraines are happening frequently we can provide medication that will make the headaches less intense and happen less often.
