Drawing from both scientific and clinical research, Southern Headaches Society's 12th Annual Scientific Meeting is excited to focus on Arresting Migraine Progression: Tools for Clinical Practice.

We will address some of the risk factors associated with migraine progression: addressing obesity, Migraine and Sleep, and Optimizing Acute Migraine Treatment. Other topics include Nutraceuticals and the Microbiome; Headache Procedures; Pediatric Headaches and Post-Traumatic Stress; as well as tools for patients to help manage their migraines.

The curriculum is intended for all clinicians who treat headaches. This event will be in person at the beautiful Grove Park Inn and Resort in Asheville, NC.
