#Migraine is a complex neurological condition!

It involves cortical, subcortical, brain stem regions.

This means that migraine affects cognition, mood, sensory processing, and the autonomic nervous system

Migraine is so much more than JUST a #hesdache!

2 PTs are having an argument on my LinkedIn post and having a pissing match that includes “in my 25+ years of experience” lol

Idgaf about your yrs of experience and the patient doesn’t either.

They care about if you have a solution to their problem!

Is it too much to ask for clarity in research articles? 🤔

When I read a study about exercise or manual therapy techniques, I find myself asking:

What exactly did they do?

Wouldn’t it be great if authors included a supplemental video 🎥 or a detailed PDF 📄 with step-by-step instructions?

This is a great community to join if you have migraine!
I'm really wanting to not be on Twitter anymore. And would love to rebuild the #migraine and #MigraineChat community here. It was thriving for so long until Melon Husk effed everything up over there.

So please start by passing the word about the feed to all your friends with migraine.
