Another review of The End of Migraines: 150 Ways to Stop Your Pain

August 22, 2021

It is gratifying to know that my colleagues consider my new book, The End of Migraines: 150 Ways to Stop Your Pain, to be useful for patients with migraines as well as doctors who treat them.

Dr. Uwe Reuter of Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Germany has published a review in the latest issue of the journal of the International Headache Society, Cephalalgia. He concludes his review, “I am happy to encourage everybody who is interested in migraine to read this e-book.”

Dr. Allan Purdy published a review of my book in May in the journal of the American Headache Society, Headache. His review was much longer and so was the conclusion:
“I would recommend this book to anyone who has migraine or cares for people with migraine and wants a broad and sometimes detailed overview of the treatments. Available in the e-book format, it represents a lot of work for one person, but his passion, occasional humor, and historical perspectives are evident in this work. You don’t have to agree or accept everything the author says to enjoy and benefit from this “book,” and I know he would want people to be critical and skeptical where warranted. However, you will find more than you would usually need to know from this banquet of 150 ways to help your migraines! Enjoy, I did very much. Read it through once and save as reference.”

If you do read this book, please write a short review on Amazon.com.

Your Brain Has Many Pathways, And TMS Can Now Use Them
A groundbreaking University of Iowa study shows that personalized fMRI-guided TMS can now reach and modulate the deep hippocampus — the brain’s command center for memory, emotion, and migraine — without surgery or heavy medications. By mapping each patient’s unique neural pathways, TMS delivers precise stimulation to surface “control points” that influence deep brain structures. Generic approaches barely work, but individualized targeting produces clear, measurable changes. At our headache clinic, we combine TMS and fMRI to offer this advanced, personalized treatment for migraines, depression, PTSD, anxiety, and more.
