First and Foremost, We Are Migraine Specialists
The Keeler Center is much more than a headache clinic or clinical trial center.
Our migraine specialists use every scientifically valid tool to identify all the elements that may
contribute to your headache. Your customized treatment plan combines all the newest
therapies to reduce the frequency and severity of migraines, as well as rescue medications for
acute attacks.
This means that we develop your individual migraine management program using every
logical and reasonable option. For example, in addition to 'Western' medicine resources, we may recommend
holistic treatments by hospital-approved therapists, including physical therapy, biofeedback,
acupuncture and yoga.
We work closely with the leading resource for migraine research.
The Keeler Center is also unique in that we are affiliated with Huntington Medical Research
Institutes (HMRI) in Pasadena, California. HMRI's Molecular Neurology Program
is an unsurpassed resource for migraine research and one that has end-benefits to Keeler Center patients.
Data gathered from patients who choose to take part in research programs are analyzed in
the HMRI laboratory. What is learned will be applied to the treatment of Keeler Center patients; and they can
take immediate advantage of newer and more effective developments in migraine treatment as they become
available.
The Keeler Center is the only national program that offers this intimate interaction
between patient care and laboratory research. To learn more about how this works to your advantage, see our
'Staff' page, particularly the write-ups on Dr. Robert Cowan, Medical Director of The Keeler Center, and Dr.
Michael Harrington of HMRI.
