Drawing from over a thousand real patient cases, he explains how symptom frequency, pain patterns, and overall health help predict how the body responds to care.Dr. Taves walks through the key differences between constant daily headaches and intermittent migraines, explains the role of central sensitization, and shows why headaches that start in the neck often respond more quickly when the mechanical source is addressed. He also clarifies why many headache diagnoses are based on symptoms rather than root cause — and how that affects long-term outcomes.If you’ve ever wondered whether your headaches are “too chronic,” “too complex,” or “too ingrained” to improve, this episode offers clarity, realistic expectations, and hope grounded in clinical experience.Novera: Headache Center
