Migraines
Description
In terms of lost and reduced productivity, migraines cost U.S. employers more than $10 billion each year. How can these debilitating headaches be prevented? Using case studies, this program discusses the biomechanics of migraine, including postmonitory and postdromal phases; diagnosis of migraine; and treatment of migraine with beta-blockers and neuromodulators as well as with biofeedback and dietary supplements such as coenzyme Q-10 and vitamin B-10. Doctors from Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, Diamond Headache Clinic, and Nashville Neuroscience Group provide expert commentary.
