Migraine Specialist and Complex Headache Consultations

No Referrals. No Waiting Lists. Book Today.

At our private clinic in Edgbaston, Birmingham, we understand how debilitating a migraine and a complex headache can be. That’s why we offer fast, compassionate access to our migraine specialist, without the need for a GP referral. With same-day or next-day appointments available, we’re here to help you take the first step toward lasting relief when you need it most.

How We Can Help

Living with a persistent headache or migraine can be physically exhausting, emotionally draining, and deeply disruptive to everyday life. We offer a dedicated headache and migraine service for those who are struggling to find lasting relief.

Our service provides expert, evidence-based care in a calm and supportive environment. With years of experience managing complex headache disorders, Dr Kyprianou tailors every treatment plan to the individual, because no two patients experience migraine in the same way.

Our clinic specialises in diagnosing and treating a full spectrum of headache conditions, including chronic migraine, tension-type headache, cluster headache, occipital neuralgia, and medication-overuse headache. We combine clinical expertise with a holistic approach to care, offering:

Botox® for Chronic Migraine

Approved specifically for chronic migraine, Botox can significantly reduce the number and severity of headache days. It’s typically recommended for patients with 15 or more headache days per month.

Greater Occipital Nerve (GON) Block

This targeted injection delivers relief by calming the inflamed nerves at the back of the head, ideal for certain types of migraine, occipital neuralgia, and cluster headache.

CGRP Monoclonal Antibody Infusions

One of the latest breakthroughs in migraine care, CGRP inhibitors are preventive treatments that target the pathways involved in migraine attacks. These infusions are often life-changing for those with medication-resistant symptoms.

Medication Review and Optimisation

Many patients we see are taking medications that are either ineffective or making things worse. We take a fresh look at what you’re using and create a safer, more effective plan.

Lifestyle and Trigger Management

migraine don’t just come from inside the body, they’re often triggered by stress, sleep patterns, diet, and hormonal changes. We work with you to identify and manage your personal triggers with practical, achievable strategies.

Whether you’ve lived with a headache for years or are only beginning to understand your symptoms, we’re here to listen, support, and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Symptoms and Conditions We Support

A headache and/or migraine is not just painful; they can be unpredictable, isolating, and deeply disruptive to everyday life. Our clinic is here to provide expert help for a wide range of headache disorders, especially those that are persistent, complex, or difficult to diagnose.

We support patients living with:

• A Chronic Migraine: Frequent, disabling headache often accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light, and other symptoms
• A Cluster Headache: Sudden, intense pain attacks typically affecting one side of the head or around the eye
• A Tension-Type Headache: Common but often misunderstood, these cause persistent pressure or tightness
• Medication Overuse Headache: A headache that worsens due to frequent pain relief medications
• A Post-Traumatic Headache: A headache following head injuries, which can persist long after the initial trauma
• Occipital Neuralgia: Sharp, stabbing pains caused by irritated nerves in the back of the head or neck
• Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalalgias (TACs): Rare but severe headache syndromes that require specialist care

Whether your symptoms are daily or episodic, familiar or difficult to describe, we’re here to help uncover the cause and guide you toward effective, lasting relief.

Our Approach

With us, you receive more than just treatment. You will receive care that’s tailored to you. Every consultation begins with a detailed assessment to understand your symptoms, history, and lifestyle. From there, we build a personalised plan using the most up-to-date, evidence-based options available.

Our care is rooted in specialist knowledge, compassion, and a deep understanding of how complex these conditions can be. We’re here to offer clarity, structure, and support, and to help you take control of your health again.

What to Expect from Your Consultation

We understand that seeking help for a chronic headache or migraine can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve tried treatments in the past without success. From your very first appointment, our goal is to offer clarity, expert support, and a clear path forward.

Your consultation will be led by our specialist in migraine and complex headache care. She will take the time to listen carefully and understand the full picture of your symptoms and how they’re affecting your life.

During your initial consultation, you can expect:

• A thorough review of your medical history, current symptoms, and previous treatments
• A neurological examination to assess any signs linked to underlying conditions
• A detailed discussion of diagnosis and treatment options based on your specific needs
• Time to ask questions and talk through your concerns in a supportive, relaxed setting

Your care doesn’t end with the first appointment. If treatment is recommended, follow-up visits are arranged to monitor your progress, adjust your treatment plan as needed, and ensure you feel supported at every step.

We are here to help you take control, with expert guidance, ongoing care, and treatment options that are designed around you.
