Podcasts about Migraine

Feeling safe in movements and exercises (like pilates or yoga) can seem like a tall order when you have vestibular migraine or dizziness. But it's not hopeless! Many people think that group is just about strength training or doing super intense workouts that they could “never do,” but that's not the case. Inside Vestibular Group Fit, we offer lots of different classes! Pilates and yoga are two of them. In this episode, Dr. Madison interviews VGFit's in-house yoga and pilates instructor, Candy Price.  In Candy's previous episode on the podcast, the conversation was focused on yoga (definitely go listen to that one!). This time around, the conversation explored all things pilates and dizziness disorders.  In this episode, we'll dig into: The difference between reformer and mat pilates The biggest benefit of moving the solar plexus The best movement for dizziness and vestibular disorders The importance of postural alignment with vestibular disorders How Candy cues during classes to help you scale the exercise How to navigate the fear of working out and moving your body again What to do if you “can't” do spinal flexion A major reframe for when you're feeling anxious How frequently you need to do pilates for it to be effective Why you should never skip the cool down Confidence and trust in your body is something that people with dizziness disorders feel like they lose or have a hard time building back up. Exercising in a way that you enjoy is the #1 way that you can do that.  If you're struggling with your vestibular disorder—whether it's a newer diagnosis or you've been looking for solutions for years—VGFit is here for you. We've curated the best instructors, class styles, and so much more to get back to feeling good and secure in your body.

In this episode of The Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves explores why some patients fail to find lasting relief from headaches and migraines—even when they have access to the right treatment. Drawing from years of clinical experience, he explains how recovery often depends less on quick fixes and more on mindset, consistency, and trust in the healing process.Dr. Taves highlights three major barriers that can keep patients from improving:A short-term mindset — expecting immediate results instead of long-term progress.A passive approach — wanting a provider to “fix” the problem without making lifestyle changes.Excessive skepticism — being too critical to fully engage in the treatment process.He compares true healing to building healthy habits—like brushing and flossing your teeth or exercising over time. Success, he says, comes from patience, persistence, and a willingness to take ownership of your health.This episode helps listeners recognize the traits of a good candidate for migraine treatment and how to overcome the habits and attitudes that may be holding them back.Novera: Headache Center

In today's episode we are talking about weather and vestibular disorders. One of the things people ask about the most is what to do about the weather?! And—no surprise to anyone—it's one of the biggest topics of conversation inside Vestibular Group Fit. We're in the middle of fall and heading toward those winter weather changes. If this is a time of the year you struggle with, this is the episode for you! (Don't worry! If you're catching this in the spring, this information will still be helpful.) In this episode, we'll dig into: How weather changes impact a vestibular disorder What other triggers are impacted by weather changes What you can do to help with weather changes What to do when you're hit with unexpected weather changes What to keep in your toolkit for changes in weather How to prepare or pre-treat for weather shifts in advance It's so important that you build your threshold and expand your bucket so weather changes become less triggering over time. It's a process, but there is hope! Check the links below for things you can add to your toolkit.

Ever feel irritable, agitated, or restless? Or, on the flip side, exhausted, drained, or shut down? These symptoms may be signs your nervous system is out of balance and they're more connected to migraine, dizziness, and overall well-being than you might think. In this episode of Spotlight on Migraine, clinical health psychologist Dr. Emily Kostelnik explains what nervous system dysregulation is, how it impacts migraine and dizziness, practical strategies to help regulate your system, and when it might be time to seek professional support.  For more ways to view, visit: https://www.migrainedisorders.org/podcast/s7ep6-nervous-system-regulation/  *The contents of this podcast are intended for general informational purposes only and do not constitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Tried everything for migraines - meds, diets, gadgets - but still struggling? You're not alone. Most women I work with feel like they've “done it all” when it comes to their migraines. From medications and Botox to elimination diets and gadgets, maybe you've found a little relief here and there, but nothing that truly lasts. It's not that you're not trying hard enough. It's that you've never had all three parts of your inflammation network addressed at the same time. That's the missing piece. In this episode, I'll walk you through my 3-step process for calming your inflammation network, decoding your genetics, and finally achieving lasting migraine freedom. What the inflammation network really is, and how it keeps your body stuck in survival mode. How to uncover the Six Keys of inflammation (electrolytes, nutrition, mindset, toxicity, circadian rhythm, movement). The hidden chronic drivers, like autoimmune issues, gut imbalances, hidden allergies, or medication overuse headaches, that keep your system in overdrive. How decoding your genetics reveals the way your body processes nutrients, balances hormones, and clears toxins. Why you may have tried one or two pieces of this puzzle before, but never had all three areas working together. Migraines don't persist because you're doing something wrong. They persist because you've only been tackling one slice of the puzzle. When we calm all three areas: Inducers, Chronic Drivers, and Genetics, the system quiets down.  And when the system quiets down? Migraines lose their grip.   Resources & Links Join me for a free live training: Why Every Pill, Diet, and Gadget Stops Working—And The #1 Root Cause No One Told You About

Sometimes the hardest part of migraine isn't the pain itself—it's the fear of when the next attack will strike. The constant scanning for symptoms, the dread of canceling plans, the weight of anxiety that lingers even on pain-free days.This episode of The Migraine Heroes Podcast dives into the cycle of anticipatory anxiety and migraine. Hosted by Diane Ducarme, who has guided hundreds of women toward calmer, steadier lives, we explore how fear wires itself into the migraine brain—and how to break free.You'll discover:

We spend so much time analyzing migraine symptoms — tracking every twinge, researching why pain moves from one side of the head to the other, trying another pill, another article, another “fix.” But have you ever stopped to look at the emotional toll migraines are taking on your life? In this episode, I'm breaking down the hidden cost of migraines: the anxiety, depression, numbness, anger, and skepticism that weigh you down just as much as the pain itself. I'll walk you through: Why it's natural to obsess over pain — and why that obsession keeps you stuck How the constant stress of “fight or flight” fuels chronic inflammation (and migraines) The real stories of women who thought mindfulness “wasn't their jam” — and what shifted for them Why society's push-through mentality is making you sicker, not stronger How emotional health connects directly to sleep, energy, and even your physical pain Migraines don't just live in your head — they live in your whole body. And until you address the emotional exhaustion, you'll keep fighting an uphill battle. Inside the Freedom From Migraines Method®, we don't skip this step. With a mindfulness coach and a dedicated NeuroRewire course, you'll finally have the tools to calm your stress response and lower the inflammation driving your pain.   Resources & Links Learn more about the Freedom From Migraines Method® → Click here!

You've cut out sugar, avoided alcohol, skipped processed foods, and followed every diet rule in the book—yet migraines keep finding their way back. Meanwhile, your partner eats pizza and drinks wine with no problem. How is that fair?This episode of The Migraine Heroes Podcast explores why “perfect” eating often fails to protect migraine warriors—and may even make things worse. Hosted by Diane Ducarme, who has helped hundreds of people rebuild trust in their bodies, we blend Western science with Eastern healing wisdom to uncover why rigid food rules can raise stress, not resilience.You'll discover:

People ask me all the time, “Does Botox work for vestibular migraine?”  Another common question people ask is, “Is it going to get rid of my dizziness?” That question is missing the point. When you're treating vestibular migraine, you're not treating the dizziness. Does Botox work for VM? Yes, but not because you're treating the dizziness. In this episode, you'll hear me synthesize a study that dove into the impact of Botox on vestibular migraine—how it works, who it works for, and some important things to know if you'd like to explore this treatment for yourself. In this episode, we'll dig into: What is Botox for and not to be used for How Botox treats vestibular migraine Where the Botox injections happen for vestibular migraine If insurance covers Botox for vestibular migraine How many Botox treatments it takes to see any change Important note if you have EDS and VM and are interested in Botox If you think Botox is just freezing the muscles and therefore vestibular migraine goes away—no. As you heard in the episode, there are way deeper things going on.  Resources referenced in this episode are linked below, so you can review them on your own and share them with your doctor.

If you've tried everything for migraines—medications, diets, massages—yet nothing seems to change, you're not imagining it. That cycle of trial-and-error is exactly what keeps so many women stuck. In this episode, I'm sharing Lisa's story. Her migraines became chronic almost every day during perimenopause, leaving her exhausted and frustrated. But when she found the Freedom From Migraines Method®, everything shifted. By addressing the root causes—chronic inflammation and a dysregulated nervous system—Lisa broke free from daily pain and reclaimed her life. If you've been doing “all the right things” but still feel stuck, Lisa's story will show you what's possible when you move beyond symptom-chasing and start lowering your migraine threshold. In this episode, you'll learn: Why migraines aren't caused by one thing, but by many small stressors that push you past your threshold How calming your nervous system and reducing hidden triggers lowers daily pain The simple steps Lisa used to stop living with chronic migraines and reclaim her energy Why structure and support matter more than trial-and-error fixes How you can start mapping out your own migraine threshold today Your migraines don't define you—and with the right approach, freedom is closer than you think.   Resources:  Free Inflammation Guide What if your migraines are really your body's alarm system stuck on repeat?

In this episode, editor in chief Joseph E.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Amaal Starling discuss the prevalence and impact of migraines, affecting approximately 1 billion people worldwide. Dr. Starling highlights the genetic and hormonal factors and discusses the different subtypes of migraines. They delve into the importance of talking to your doctor or seeing a headache specialist if you are experiencing headaches and migraines, as well as the economic burden of migraines in the US. Finally, they discuss exciting new treatment options, ones that have been developed over the last decade.    Key Takeaways: There is a lot of stigma around people with migraines. Women with migraines and pain conditions are disproportionately stigmatized.  1 in 5 women, 1 in 11 children, and 1 in 16 men are affected by migraines - an average of 1 in 7 worldwide.  Different people will experience migraines and migraine treatment differently. They all also have different triggers, though some are more common, such as red wine, nitrates, and caffeine. Many new migraine treatment options are not covered, either immediately or at all, by insurance providers. Colic in infants appears to be associated with increased risk of adult migraine.   "There is still a lot to learn about the genetics of migraines. Genetics is a strong factor in who is going to have migraines versus not, but there are also a lot of other external and internal factors." —  Dr. Amaal Starling   Episode References:  American Migraine Foundation: https://americanmigrainefoundation.org/    Connect with Dr. Amaal Starling: Professional Bio: https://www.mayo.edu/research/faculty/starling-amaal-j-m-d/bio-20147052  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/amaal-starling-md-fahs-faan-085b58a3    Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Welcome to this special episode of the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice. For major FDA decisions in the field of neurology, we release short special episodes to offer a snapshot of the news, including the main takeaways for the clinical community, as well as highlights of the efficacy and safety profile of the agent in question. In this special edition of Mind Moments, Patricia Pozo-Rosich, MD, PhD, head of the neurology department at Vall d'Hebron University Hospital, discussed the recent FDA approval of fremanezumab (Ajovy) for pediatric migraine prevention. As a study author on the pivotal phase 3 SPACE trial (NCT03539393), Dr. Pozo-Rosich reflected on the significance of having a proven therapeutic option in a population where placebo responses and lack of evidence have long complicated care. She provided insights on how the trial was designed and the challenges of running pediatric studies, particularly in adolescents. Additionally, she highlighted broader implications for migraine research, including efforts to reduce placebo effects, the role of CGRP pathway inhibition in younger patients, and the future promise of emerging targets such as PACAP antagonists and new toxin formulations.

Tracking your symptoms can be incredibly helpful in revealing patterns. When we talk about vestibular migraine, we ultimately want to figure out the patterning behind it for you. Even if it feels like it's completely random and there's absolutely no pattern, there's almost always some sort of pattern. I help a lot of my patients figure out what their pattern is by them tracking their symptoms and sharing their log with me. In today's episode, I'm sharing what that looks like so you have a roadmap to follow. In this episode, we'll dig into: How to track your vestibular disorder symptoms Examples of common vestibular migraine symptoms Which symptoms you want to track for your vestibular disorder What your neurologist and other providers will want to see What symptoms to track short term vs long term The benefit of having a VM toolkit for attacks What to do to begin your vestibular healing journey Part of living with and managing a vestibular disorder is about understanding your unique situation. Which, yes, includes symptom tracking for the short and long term. It's not possible to ignore your way or think your way out of a vestibular disorder. It's about awareness, intentional actions, and curating the most supportive tools and providers for you.

Over the next four weeks, we're diving into a connection most people never think about: the link between your gut health and migraines. If you've ever shrugged off constipation, bloating, or “just not going regularly” as normal, this series will be an eye-opener. Your gut is your body's highway for removing toxins. When it's backed up or out of balance, the “traffic jam” can set off a cascade of inflammation that triggers migraines. In the first episode of this series, I'll walk you through: Why your bathroom habits are a telltale sign of what's happening in your gut What's normal when it comes to elimination (spoiler: it's not 3 wipes and a rabbit pellet) How gut dysfunction could be fueling your migraine attacks Simple signs your stool is sending you every day, and how to read them

  Migraine can present in a variety of ways. Hemiplegic migraine is a rare form of migraine where people experience weakness on one side of their body (hemiplegia) in addition to the migraine headache attack. The weakness is a form of migraine aura and occurs with other forms of typical migraine aura like changes in vision, speech or sensation. Our guest on today's show is Amber Blackburn. Amber is a Registered Nurse turned blogger and patient advocate for those with chronic illnesses.   ​ Amber Blackburn is a Registered Nurse turned blogger and patient advocate for those with chronic illnesses. She was forced to leave the workforce after ten years as a nurse; this gave her the patient medical experience and perspective. Being diagnosed and living with a chronic illness has given her the experience of everyday living so she understands both sides of the coin. Amber lives with Systemic Lupus, Migraines, ​Fibromyalgia, Interstitial Cystitis, IBS, Anxiety, Depression and Adrenal Insufficiency secondary to long term steroid use. Since being forced to leave the traditional workforce due to her illnesses, she has become a strong patient advocate and blogger with her blog being “The World Sees Normal.” Amber works with the Chronic Disease Coalition. She has had her work published by The Mighty, Yahoo and has been nominated for four WEGO Health Awards. She has published a symptom tracker for those with chronic conditions to track their symptoms and pain to share with their doctors. She understands the need for good communication between patients and doctors, but also support the chronic illness community, making sure those living with illnesses understand they are not alone or isolated.

In today's Q&A episode, I'm answering a powerful question from Marie, who wrote in to share that after a head injury, her doctor told her she'll always have migraines. She's tried medication after medication with no real relief and doesn't know what to do next. Marie, if you're listening, you are not alone. And if you've ever been told something similar, this episode is for you. Just because you've been told there's no hope doesn't make it true. I'm not here to dismiss doctors, but most traditional practitioners aren't trained in nutrition or functional medicine, and that can leave huge gaps when it comes to chronic conditions like migraines.   In this episode, I'm sharing: Why Western and Eastern medicine both matter—but need to be used differently What an inflammatory network breakdown is (and how it ties into chronic migraines) Why even a 30–50% improvement in your migraines could completely change your life And how all-or-nothing thinking might be holding you back from real progress I've seen it happen too many times to count: women who thought they were “stuck” with migraines find relief, sometimes dramatic, sometimes gradual, but always worth it. So let me ask you: What would 15 pain-free days a month mean to you? Because that's not out of reach. In fact, it might just be the beginning. Resources: Ready for Support?
