Stroke is now third most common cause of death in the Western World. In simple language a stroke is either a blockage or a rupture of a blood vessel in the brain interrupting oxygen supply which results very quickly in the death of brain tissue supplied by the vessels involved. ‘Cerebrovascular Disease’ is used to mean any abnormality of the brain resulting from pathological processes of the blood vessels. Pathological processes are defined as any lesions of the vessel wall, occl...

Dehydration Migraine: Most commonly found in children and involving habitually drinking insufficient fluid of any sort. Many such patients will go all day without drinking. It really doesn't occur to them to drink beyond the occasional sip to wet their mouth, just enough to take the feeling of thirst away. This type of dehydration headache comes on in the afternoon and is the easiest to test for as a conscious effort to drink a full glass of water 3 or 4 times a day will make an imme...
Neck Tension Migraine: Most commonly found in people who carry their responsibilities, or the 'weight of the world' on their shoulders. It is easy to test for this one also as there is always a serious amount of neck tension involved. Feel how soft the muscles at the base of the neck and top of the shoulders are and massage the tension out. Have a series of professional massages (not chiropractic adjustment in the first instance) and systematically work down through the accumul...
Liver Based Migraine : This type is triggered by certain foods and if you watch carefully you can begin to associate the onset of this type of headache with some particular food. Usually some sort of junk food involving too much oil, or artificial colour or flavour. Often red wine or cheese for example can also be involved in a liver based migraine pattern.

It may also be that your Migraine pattern is really one of the other types, but just that at period time, the extra load on the system will trigger the headache. In these cases it is useful to combine both the Hormonal Migraine Program with the other one appropriate to the case. Please give some thought to the pos...
