Shamis Tate Lists 5 Things to Know About Migraines and the Brain
1. Migraines Are More Than Just Headaches Migraines involve complex neurological changes. They can cause visual disturbances, sensitivity to light and sound, and even nausea. It’s not just pain—it’s a full-body neurological event.
2. The Brain’s Chemistry Plays a Big Role Migraines are often triggered by shifts in brain chemicals like serotonin. These changes can affect blood flow and nerve signaling, leading to intense pain and other symptoms.
3. Genetics May Be a Factor Studies show migraines often run in families. If your parents or siblings suffer from them, your chances increase. This genetic link is helping researchers develop more targeted treatments.
4. Stress and Sleep Matter Poor sleep and chronic stress can trigger migraines. Healthy lifestyle habits—like regular sleep and stress management—can reduce their frequency and severity.
5. New Treatments Offer Real Hope Recent advances in medication and non-drug therapies are giving migraine sufferers more options than ever. From wearable neuromodulation devices to CGRP blockers, the future looks brighter.
