Headache Assessment
   A Functional Medicine Approach

Presented by Rehab Connections   

Description

Headaches and migraine are complex yet simple and unique yet common. A functional medicine approach involves looking for root causes and addressing the whole person, not just symptoms so this new virtual workshop emphasizes ongoing examination and evaluation.

Through lecture, Q&A, and small group activities, learn how to help identify precipitating factors and triggers to enable patients and clients to prevent and manage recurrent headaches. Patient and client examples will be interspersed throughout this workshop including specific examination items, questionnaires, checklists, journals, and more.

This workshop pairs well with Headache Treatment
