Medication
Over-the-counter and prescription medications fall under the category of abortive methods. These methods are reactionary in nature and often relieve pain quickly or immediately, but do not lessen the severity or frequency of the headaches, nor do they prevent the recurrence of the headaches.
Injections
Interventional Pain Management techniques can be highly effective in treating headaches. These techniques may include intramuscular narcotic injections such as Demerol or Toradol to control pain. Nerve blocks, injections which paralyze nerves that transmit pain, can also be used by the physician to control pain. A few drugs used in nerve blocks include Botox, Depromedrone, and Sarapin.
Surgery
Towards the end of the Interventional Pain Management spectrum is the use of minimally invasive surgical procedures. These include Epidural Steroid Injections (ESI), Facet Injections, Nerve Blocks, and Implantable Neurostimulation Devices. These methods may involve the cutting and/or removal of nerves and muscles.
The Omega Migraine Procedure
Within the last 15 years, implantable neurostimulation devices have proven to be very effective in treating chronic pain — including chronic migraine headaches. The Omega migraine procedure is a revolutionary migraine treatment that provides long-lasting relief for people who suffer from chronic, debilitating migraine pain.

If you have exhausted all other treatment options and have still not found a solution that work for you, we may be able to help.
Our revolutionary migraine treatment, the Omega procedure, can provide long-lasting relief for people who suffer from chronic, debilitating migraine pain. In fact, the procedure is so effective, its innovators have been honored by the International Headache Society.
Based on the medical research and techniques discussed in Combined Occipital and Supraorbital Neurostimulation for the Treatment of Chronic Migraine Headaches — a medical white paper published in the March 2010 edition of Cephalalgia, the journal of The International Headache Society, the Omega procedure works by using gentle neurostimulation to treat both the occipital and supraorbital nerves that cause severe headache pain.
Benefits of the Omega Procedure Include:
- A significant reduction in chronic pain.
- Most patients have experienced an 80% to 100% reduction in their migraine pain.
- Most patients are able to completely stop taking migraine medications or greatly reduce the amount they take.
- Most patients no longer need to visit doctors or the hospital for migraine pain.
- Most can return to their normal work, school and family routines.
- Comfort — patients are usually not aware of the implant or only feel a gentle, soothing vibration.
- No physical limitations — patients can continue to play a wide range of sports.
- Superficial location under the skin — the implant cannot damage the brain, spine, major nerves or organs.
- The battery implant and wires typically cannot be seen.
- Ability to test the treatment before the actual procedure.
