After you've tried a lot of other things.
People come to us for migraines after they've tried a lot of other things — often already under a doctor's care, often with headaches that started after a concussion. We don't treat migraines. This page is about who comes in, not about what would happen for you.
A sudden, severe headache — or the worst headache of your life — is a medical emergency: call 911 or get to an emergency room now. The same goes for a headache with anything new alongside it — confusion, trouble seeing or speaking, weakness or numbness, a stiff neck with a fever. Nothing here comes before that, and we'd tell you the same thing on the phone.
This page is for the long haul. Migraines a doctor already knows about, that have been part of your life for a while:
- Headaches that date to a concussion and won't fully leave
- Migraines that have outlasted years of good-faith attempts
- A doctor or neurologist already involved — and staying involved
- A list, somewhere, of everything that's already been tried
People come to us for migraines after they've tried a lot of other things. Often they're already under a doctor's care — care that continues exactly as it is — and often the headaches started after a concussion. We don't treat migraines, and we won't tell you what LENS would do for yours. That's what the free call is for.
Why this looks like the rest of our neurofeedback work.
For many of the people this page describes, the story starts with a head injury — medically handled, and headaches that arrived with it and stayed. That picture sits close to the rest of our work: attention, sleep, mood, and mental fatigue clustering around a nervous system struggling to regulate. The headaches themselves stay your doctor's territory.
LENS is a wellness service. It works alongside — never in place of — your doctor, therapist, or school supports.
Who we see.
We don't treat migraines, and we won't tell you what LENS would do for yours — that's what the free call is for. Physicians in Middle Tennessee refer patients to us — we work from a standing referral list. When the headaches date to a head injury, our concussion page describes that territory properly.
What a first visit involves.
The first visit is The Harmonized Brain Map: about 60 minutes, a 21-point recording of brain activity, and a written plan you keep. It's a recording, not a test — and not a medical assessment of your headaches.
