This review is from: Complete Idiot's Guide to Migraines and Other Headaches (Mass Market Paperback)
After years of suffering and going from one doctor to another I finally obtained the needed guidance from this book. Through its pages you are offered much information and the possibility of finding the proper avenue to health. Not all headaches are the same or stem from the same cause, therefore a cautionary but educated approach is the best route to take, and the authors with their experts (including a Naturopathic Physician)do so admirably. If one's objective is to rid or at least ameliorate their condition I strongly recommend the information compiled in this book.
