115. What to Do If You Suffer From Headaches or Migraines with Dr. Meg Mill


Listen Later

The common method of treatment in the healthcare system is to look at what medicine the patient can take to help with their symptoms. However, in this watch and wait system, there are so many things that are skipped over that people could be doing that could get them to the point of not needing medication. Dr. Meg Mill is joining me today to discuss the importance of finding the root cause of health issues.

Dr. Meg Mill is a Functional Medicine Practitioner, bestselling author, podcast host and speaker. In her virtual Functional Medicine practice, she works with patients worldwide to heal the root cause of their health struggles through advanced diagnostic testing and personalized support. She has been seen on Fox News Channel, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, in Reader's Digest, Health Magazine, and has appeared on many podcasts. In her podcast A Little Bit Healthier she discusses simple things you can add to your life every day to live a healthier, more fulfilled life.

Meg is particularly passionate about helping people end headaches and migraines, increase energy and restore mental clarity without drugs or overwhelming protocols with her proven E.A.T. Method.

In this episode, Dr. Meg Mill is discussing the current watch and wait system of healthcare, why she chose to focus on headaches in her practice, the importance of looking at the unique individual to determine root causes, different causes of headaches, and possible ways to get relief from headaches.
