Orthodox treatments can work for some migraineurs, but sadly for many they simply are not effective.  Part of the reason for this is there are different types of migraines and each type and each person often needs a specific tailored approach to treatment.  In this class we will discuss the underlying causes and triggers of neuro-inflammation, the orthodox treatments of migraine headaches, the energetics of this condition and botanical and nutritional supplements to reduce migraine pain and frequency. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSCHEDULE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10:00: Herb Walk with David\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11:30 Break with Herbal Refreshments and Book Signing\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1200-1:30: Brain Pain Lecture\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e*\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLOCATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBluestem Botanicals (Behind the Holiday House Pet Resort and Doylestown Vet Hospital)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e380 North Shady Retreat Road\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eDoylestown, PA 18901\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePlease follow signs to parking area at the back of property \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e*\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDAVID WINSTON, RH (AHG)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4 align=\"center\" style=\"margin: 0in; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; font-family: 'Times',serif;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; font-family: 'Times',serif;\"\u003eDavid Winston is an Herbalist and Ethnobotanist with 58 years of training in Chinese, Western\/Eclectic and Southeastern herbal traditions.  He has been in clinical practice for 50 years and is an herbal consultant to physicians, herbalists and researchers throughout the USA, Europe and Canada.  David is the founder\/director of the Herbal Therapeutics Research Library and the dean of David Winston’s Center for Herbal Studies, a two-year training program in clinical herbal medicine.
