Neuragenex Treatment For Chronic Migraines And Headaches in St. Charles, Illinois

Electroanalgesia for Chronic Migraines and Headaches in St. Charles, Illinois

Electroanalgesia is an external high-pulse electrical stimulation treatment that we use to reduce pain and inflammation associated with chronic headaches. This therapy helps relax tense muscles, reduce spasms, manage swelling, and improve the patient’s overall level of comfort, which can be incredibly beneficial for chronic migraine sufferers.

Electroanalgesia is an FDA-approved therapy that has been proven to be effective. However, it’s not commonly used because it doesn’t provide the quick-fix relief that other treatments offer. For instance, some healthcare providers use TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) machines. However, TENS devices use low-pulse currents, meaning that they are only suitable for temporary, short-term relief from pain — not chronic pain.

Since we focus on patient wellness over short-term relief, electroanalgesia is an ideal therapy for our chronic migraine and headache patients. This is because the pain relief you experience following electroanalgesia lasts longer for every session you have — all without the risks involved with painkillers or surgery.

Electroanalgesia helps reduce pain in several ways: First, the electrical current stimulates nerve endings, reducing the amount of pain signals sent to the brain. Second, electroanalgesia helps release endorphins, which are natural chemicals that provide a feeling of well-being and relaxation and help alleviate pain.

As part of our Neuragenex protocol, we provide two electroanalgesia treatments per week for 12 weeks.

IV Therapy for Chronic Migraines and Headaches in St. Charles, Illinois

IV therapy is a treatment in which a combination of vitamins, electrolytes, antioxidants, and hydrating fluids are delivered intravenously via an IV drip. This therapy helps provide the body with essential nutrients that are quickly absorbed by your cells and can help reduce inflammation, pain, and nausea, all of which are common symptoms of chronic migraines and headaches. IV therapy helps provide both instant and long-term relief, which is why we use it in combination with electroanalgesia to provide overall relief from chronic pain.

We prescribe IV therapy treatments based on each patient’s specific symptoms and needs following a thorough bloodwork evaluation.
