Ekspertiseområder

Diagnosticering og behandling af hovedpinesygdomme, både migræne og spændingshovedpine, men også indenfor mere sjældne typer hovedpine.

Personlig tilgang til behandling

Det er alene patienten, der oplever smerterne og kan beskrive symptomerne. Derfor er samtalen om symptomerne og hvilke ønsker patienten har for behandling vigtig, for vi kan stille den rigtige diagnose og finde den rette behandling for den enkelte.
