Editorial Reviews

Dr. Mauskop has treated thousands of patients with migraine during decades of clinical experience. His goal is to describe and evaluate the immense amount of information available about the diverse strategies—self-management, behavioral, and medical—that have been shown to impact the occurrence and treatment of migraine. The work will be empowering for those who suffer with migraine and will provide a foundation for lifestyle decisions and discussions with health professions.

Dr. Mauskop, a highly experienced specialist in headache medicine, has compiled a book which will answer many of the questions that those with migraine frequently ask. This is particularly timely given the multiple new treatments and approaches to the management of those with migraine. Those suffering from migraine, or those having someone close to them suffering from migraine, would be wise to read this information and incorporate this information into their own management plan.

Knowledge is power and migraine patients will be empowered with knowledge after reading The End of Migraines. A leading authority shares his decades of clinical experience on the nuances of migraine care, from the standard medical approaches to acupuncture, behavioral, dietary and other approaches to prevent or treat migraine. Not only will migraineurs benefit from this book, but so will neurologists.

The End of Migraines: 150 ways to stop your pain is a remarkable book, and brings something new to the library of headache resources for patients. Dr. Mauskop, a longtime advocate for non-medicinal treatments for headaches, covers every imaginable option here from supplements to herbal treatments to many lifestyle and behavioral strategies. The writing style is clear and concise, and readers will have the sense that they are sitting with Dr. Mauskop and hearing his advice first hand.

I enjoyed reading this book which is intended as a comprehensive but practical resource for persons with migraines. The text is thorough but very readable. Dr. Mauskop employs his extensive clinical experience with historical anecdotes, scientific references and a dash of humor. He covers a wide range of options ranging from non-pharmacologic treatments to supplements and the whole range of prescription remedies.
