Migraine aura affects roughly 25 to 30 percent of migraine sufferers. Here is what it looks like, why it happens, and the warning signs that need immediate attention.
Your vagus nerve is the key to calming your nervous system. Here are 12 evidence-based exercises and techniques you can start using today, from cold exposure and breathwork to tVNS devices, with the science behind each one.
When a migraine strikes, treating it within 30 to 60 minutes gives you the best shot at full relief. This guide covers acute options, non-drug techniques, and regenerative approaches for lasting results.
Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) affects the tiny nerve fibers that control pain, temperature, and autonomic function. This comprehensive guide covers causes, diagnostic testing, conventional and regenerative treatments, and why standard nerve tests often miss it.
Biofeedback trains body signals such as heart rate variability and muscle tension, while neurofeedback trains brainwaves measured by EEG. Biofeedback has broader evidence and insurance coverage; neurofeedback is used mostly for ADHD, with mixed results in blinded trials.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for traumatic brain injury uses 100% oxygen at 1.5 to 2.0 ATA over 40 to 60 sessions, with its best evidence in mild TBI with lasting post-concussion symptoms. Results are mixed in sham-controlled trials, and the FDA has not cleared HBOT for TBI.
TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate underactive brain circuits in people with treatment-resistant depression. Learn about response rates, what sessions feel like, the accelerated SAINT protocol, and how TMS compares to medication and ECT.
At a Glance Neurofeedback for ADHD has been rated as a Level 1 “Best Support” (Established) intervention by the American Academy of Pediatrics, the highest evidence rating. The most studied protocols for ADHD are SMR (sensorimotor rhythm) training and theta/beta ratio training. A typical treatment course involves 30 to 40 sessions, usually 2 to 3…
Neurofeedback trains the ADHD brain to produce healthier brainwave patterns using real-time EEG feedback. Learn about theta/beta ratio training, SMR and SCP protocols, evidence from randomized trials, how it compares to stimulant medication, and whether benefits last.
Migraine causes one sided, throbbing pain with nausea or light sensitivity, while a tension headache is bilateral and pressing. The difference changes which treatments actually work.
TMS for anxiety is not yet FDA-cleared but is increasingly used off-label with growing evidence. Learn about right vs. left DLPFC targeting, GAD and PTSD evidence, iTBS protocols, how it compares to SSRIs and benzodiazepines, and what treatment looks like.
Migraine and gut health are linked through the gut-brain axis: over 90% of serotonin is made in the gut, and migraine patients are 2 to 3 times more likely to have GI conditions like IBS.
