Taking Charge of Headache™ is a free webinar series empowering women veterans with knowledge and support.
May Webinar:
When you’ve tried everything and still haven’t found relief, what’s next? In this episode of Taking Charge of Headache, we’re tackling the big question: What treatment options are available to veterans living with headache and migraine attacks? From prescriptions to neuromodulation devices, to acupuncture, we’ll explore real solutions veterans can discuss with your healthcare provider, whether at the VA and/or Tricare.

Free Educational Webinar and Community Chat
Families and loved ones are welcome.
