Hemi Health
What is Trigeminal Neuralgia?
Trigeminal neuralgia is a relatively rare neurological disorder characterized by brief, intensely painful, unilateral jolts localized in one or more of the three branches of the facial sensory nerve.
Specialized help for other headache types
Migraines and tension headaches are the most common headache disorders. However, there are many other types of headaches that can be just as debilitating and often require specialized assessment and treatment.
Behind the word "headache" lie many different conditions
Most people think of migraines or tension headaches when they hear the word headache.
However, there are a wide range of other types of headaches some rare, others more common than you might think that each require their own assessment and treatment to be properly understood.
At Hemi, you will meet specialists who work daily with the full spectrum of headache disorders. Whether your symptoms fit into a known category or the picture is more unclear, we help you find out what lies behind them and what can actually make a difference for you.
A headache is not just a headache
Many people live with headaches without knowing the cause. At Hemi, we help you find the right diagnosis and treatment. We see patients with all types of headaches, including:
Cluster headache
A rare but very painful headache disorder characterized by intense attacks around one eye.
Medication-overuse headache
Headache that can occur as a result of frequent use of painkillers or migraine medication.
Post-traumatic headache
Headache that occurs after a concussion or other injury to the head or neck.
Kind words from our clients
Patient experiences speak louder than words – here they share their stories.
“In three months, Hemi did more for me than my neurologist, hospital, GP, and countless other practitioners have done in 10 years. I received medication that worked, could ask all my questions without any issues, and gained knowledge about my situation. I wish I had contacted them long ago. Highly recommended.”
Monika, 35 years old
"I have suffered from migraines since I was young, and over the years, they have increased in intensity and frequency. For many years, I felt like a guinea pig for various treatments. What has been meaningful for me is meeting neurologists and nurses who are experts in migraines and can therefore provide targeted treatment."
