Approximately 70% of the population in Germany suffers from occasional headaches. This makes headaches one of the most common symptoms and only rarely is a doctor consulted.
This is not the case with chronic headaches, however, which occur repeatedly over a period of several months, tormenting those affected and thus considerably restricting their quality of life.
It can conceal an independent headache disorder. This includes migraines, but also tension headaches.
The different types of headaches can be categorised based on the International Headache Classification be diagnosed. This is the only way to provide effective therapy based on treatment guidelines.
As a specialist for headaches, Dr Schnieber stands for an individual mosaic of individual therapy components at the Schmerzwerkstatt München. The aim is to achieve lasting relief of symptoms, taking into account the latest scientific therapeutic approaches. This includes, for example, botulinus toxin injections for selected forms of headache or "migraine immunisation" using immunotherapy.
Another focus of treatment is the use of complementary, non-medicinal methods such as TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) or progressive muscle relaxation according to Jakobson.
