Learn from The Migraine World Summit

April 26, 2017

I am certain that you will learn a lot of useful information from listening to the top headache experts in the world. The event is free during the week when it is held (April 23 – 29), but afterwards you will have to pay for full access to all interviews. The Migraine World Summit is in its second year and it again assembled excellent speakers to address a wide variety of headache-related topics. Last year I spoke on non-drug therapies and this year the speakers are again addressing not only medications, but many alternative treatments and self-care. In addition to many leading neurologists, the event features Ping Ho, MA, MPH, a UCLA expert on alternative therapies, meteorologist, Michael Steinberg of Accuweather, Vidyamala Burch, a mindfulness expert, an Australian psychologist, Paul Martin, a geneticist, Professor Lyn Griffiths of Queensland UT (the event is organized by an Australian migraine sufferer Carl Cincinnato, so there are many Australians represented), and over 30 other experts.

Here is a blurb from the organizers:

In it’s first year, The Migraine World Summit became the largest ever conference for migraine patients. In 2017, we’re back with 36 brand NEW interviews where you’ll discover even more about…

Music and Pain
Music can relieve pain, but what kind of music? A new study from McGill University, published in Pain, found that music with greater emotional depth reduced pain, while intense, forceful music increased it. The effect seemed to depend on how much listeners enjoyed the music. The practical advice: choose music you love, rather than music labeled relaxing or therapeutic.

Brain disorders
Genetic connection of fibromyalgia with low back pain, PTSD, IBS, and other disorders.
A genome-wide study published in Nature Medicine found that fibromyalgia shares genetic risk factors with chronic pain conditions, IBS, PTSD, and sleep disturbances. This supports treating these overlapping conditions as one problem of a hyperexcitable nervous system rather than as separate diseases, using a multidisciplinary approach that combines psychological therapies with medications, injections, and neurostimulation.
