Headaches Treatment in Dallas

Chronic headache and migraine management in Dallas. Identify root triggers and receive advanced interventional care.

Condition Overview

About Headaches

Chronic migraines and debilitating headaches disrupt every area of daily living. Rather than simply masking symptoms with temporary medications, our pain specialists identify underlying cervical, muscular, and neurological contributors for sustained relief.

We manage complex headache disorders including chronic migraines, cervicogenic headaches, tension headaches, and occipital neuralgia. Through interventional procedures and targeted neuromodulation, we aim to significantly reduce headache frequency and severity.

Common Causes

  • Cervical spine dysfunction (cervicogenic pain)
  • Myofascial trigger points in neck and upper back
  • Occipital nerve irritation or entrapment
  • Neurological sensitization & vascular dilation
  • Stress, sleep disruption, and ergonomic tension
  • Hormonal and environmental triggers

Common Symptoms

  • Frequent, pulsating, or throbbing head pain
  • Sensitivity to light (photophobia) and sound
  • Nausea, dizziness, or visual aura prior to headache onset
  • Headaches originating in the neck and radiating forward
  • Tension across forehead, temples, or base of the skull
  • Episodes lasting hours or days that resist standard pain relievers

When to See a Doctor About Headaches

Book an evaluation if your headaches

A specialist review is worthwhile when headaches:

  • Happen often or are becoming more frequent
  • Stop responding to over-the-counter pain relievers
  • Seem to start in your neck or the base of your skull
  • Began after a car accident or other head or neck injury

When to get urgent care

Call 911 or go to an emergency room for a sudden, severe "worst ever" headache, or a headache with fever and stiff neck, confusion, weakness or numbness, slurred speech, vision loss, a seizure, or after a head injury.
