Common Types of Headaches
Headaches can take many forms, each requiring a unique approach to treatment. At CNS, we specialize in diagnosing and treating the following:
Migraines: Intense, often debilitating headaches that can last for hours or days and are frequently accompanied by nausea, light sensitivity, and visual disturbances.
Tension Headaches: The most common type of headache, often characterized by a dull, steady pain around the head or neck, usually caused by stress, muscle tension, or poor posture.
Cluster Headaches: Severe, one-sided headaches that occur in cycles or clusters, often with sharp, burning pain around the eye.
Sinus Headaches: Caused by sinus infections or inflammation, these headaches are typically felt in the forehead, cheeks, or around the eyes.
Chronic Daily Headaches: Headaches that occur 15 or more days a month, often requiring specialized care for proper management.

Your best option
Experts in Headache Care
At CNS Center, we take a comprehensive approach to headache care, focusing on the whole individual. Our expert team of neurologist and specialists work together to understand the root causes of your headaches and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Our Treatment Options Include:
Medication Management: We offer both preventative and acute treatments, including medications to reduce headache frequency, alleviate pain, and manage symptoms during an episode. IV migraine cocktails are also provided for those who suffer from headaches for 24 hours or longer.
Botox for Chronic Migraines: Botox injections have been shown to reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines, providing lasting relief for many patients
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): A non-invasive therapy that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in headache pain, offering an alternative treatment for migraine sufferers.
Physical Therapy: Often, headaches are caused or aggravated by muscle tension and poor posture. Our physical therapy team works with you to strengthen muscles, improve posture, and reduce tension that may contribute to your headaches.
Nutritional Counseling: Certain foods and lifestyle habits can be headache triggers. Our team provides personalized guidance on diet and lifestyle adjustments to help minimize headache frequency.
Alternative Therapies: We integrate experimental treatments like hyperbaric medicine to complement traditional medical approaches, aiming to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and enhance overall well-being.
Occipital Nerve Blocks: a highly effective treatment option for patients struggling with chronic migraines and headaches, with studies showing that up to 30% of patients suffering from cervicogenic headaches experience significant relief. This quick, in-office procedure provides almost immediate pain relief, making it a trusted solution for long-lasting headache and migraine management.
Migraine Infusions: an effective treatment for patients experiencing severe migraines, especially those whose headaches last more than 24 hours, making them ideal candidates for our specialized Migraine Cocktail infusion. Instead of going to the ER, patients can infuse in comfort in our premium infusion suite, finding fast, lasting relief in a calm and supportive setting.
Patient Review
Dr. Lenny Cohen and his team are excellent at their job. After being injured in a car accident, I suffered a contusion and whiplash, which led to severe headaches, neck pain, anxiety, and depression. He and his team provided me with the necessary treatment for over a year. Thanks to their expertise and kindness, I feel much better today. I highly recommend him and will always be grateful.
