TEDx SUNY Upstate: THE PERILS OF PUSHING THROUGH YOUR HEADACHES: UNVEILING THE SCIENCE

Did you know that repeated migraines can physically change the structure of your brain? That's why migraine is the #1 cause of disability in women under 50. But with new science and technology, we change this statistic and give women their lives back. To see if you're in chronification, take the quiz at theheadachequi....

★☆★ ABOUT DR. AMELIA SCOTT BARRETT ★☆★
After more than 20 years as a Stanford-trained Neurologist, I'm seeing a big problem out there. So many people with migraines are "powering through...". Gotta get the kids to soccer? Take some ibuprofen. Work deadline coming up? Pull out the prescription meds. I'm not judging ~ I totally get it, because I've done those things too. The problem is that when you get to the point where you're having 10 or more headache days a month, then your brain starts to physically change. It's kind of like laying down train tracks that make it easier for the "migraine train" to run through your head.
Instead of powering through, we need to listen to the pain signals and figure out to help the brain actually heal. Does the brain need different nutrients? Do we need to remove toxins? Rewire to the parasympathetic state of healing? We can use modern science to figure out exactly what we need in order to heal, and then we can monitor our bodies with devices to be sure we are making that happen.
Curious? Good! Join me for our Masterclass so I can explain it in more detail!

YAYYYYYY!!!! You are most welcome :)

Wondering where we can get this genetic testing done? It would be valuable to have that information as I am probably experiencing the chronification you mentioned. I have daily Migraines.. I take preventive, use a nerivio, wear sunglasses avoid scents and I am just absolutly exhausted from trying to just live.

For the omegas, does this relate to men too? I’m watching this to learn more ways to help my son decrease his migraines.

Yes it definitely applies to men too!
