Frequently Asked Questions About Headache & Migraine Treatment in Fort Worth

What types of headaches do you treat?

At WOW Spine, we treat chronic migraines, tension headaches, cluster headaches, and cervicogenic headaches (headaches caused by neck problems). Dr. Martinez performs a comprehensive evaluation to determine your headache type and develop the most effective treatment plan. If you experience headaches 15 or more days per month, you may be a candidate for preventive treatments like Botox.

What is an occipital nerve block and how does it help headaches?

An occipital nerve block is an injection of local anesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication around the occipital nerves at the base of your skull. These nerves are often involved in migraines, tension headaches, and occipital neuralgia. The procedure takes just minutes and can provide relief lasting weeks to months. Many patients experience significant reduction in headache frequency and intensity.

How does Botox help with chronic migraines?

Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) is FDA-approved for adults who experience chronic migraines (15 or more headache days per month). It works by blocking the release of chemicals involved in pain transmission, preventing migraines before they start. Botox is injected into specific muscles around the head and neck every 12 weeks. Most patients see improvement after 2-3 treatment cycles.

What is a cervicogenic headache?

Cervicogenic headaches originate from problems in the cervical spine (neck) but are felt in the head. They’re often caused by arthritis, disc problems, or muscle tension in the neck. These headaches typically start at the base of the skull and radiate to the forehead or behind the eyes. Dr. Martinez can treat cervicogenic headaches with cervical epidural injections, facet joint injections, or medial branch blocks.

When should I see a pain specialist for headaches?

Consider seeing a pain specialist if you experience headaches 15 or more days per month, your headaches don’t respond to over-the-counter medications, headaches interfere with work or daily activities, you’re taking pain medication more than 2-3 times per week, or you’ve tried multiple treatments without success. Interventional treatments can often help when medications alone have failed.

Does WOW Spine accept my insurance for headache treatment?

We accept most major insurance plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield Texas, Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare, and Medicare. Many headache treatments, including Botox for chronic migraines, are covered by insurance when medically necessary. Call 682-285-1044 and our staff will verify your coverage before your appointment.
