What is the Natural Migraine Relief for Women substack blog?

Hi! I’m Jeff Baker, the physician host for this blog series: Frequently Asked Questions about Natural Migraine Relief for Women.

This blog is an extension of a course I teach: Natural Migraine Relief for Women, which is aimed at:

  1. helping women to understand the underlying root causes of their migraines, and

  2. assisting them to individualize the applicable non-drug strategies aimed at managing their migraine root cause factors, and in that process reduce or clear their migraine headaches.

My Frequently Asked Questions posts include:

  • topics related to migraine that I encounter in my practice, or in my research study about migraines. I aim to provide practical ‘what you can do now’ pointers in each blogpost’s wrap up.

  • specific topics or questions I get from patients, blog readers and course participants.  These include background information and non-drug therapy ideas for those in the general public as well as interested health care providers.

  • expanded discussion for paid subscribers on course content where new information is available, or additional aspects or applications deserve comment.

About the author

Jeff Baker M.D. is the Natural Migraine Relief blog and course author.

I’m a practicing physician, with additional Master’s degree training in physiology and immunology. My research-based experience during my medical education left me with a lifelong interest in the underlying biochemical causes of health problems.

Over the years I’ve specialized in Family Medicine, delivered babies, assisted surgery, sub-specialized in Sports Medicine and also have 25 years of ER work experience. In all, almost 40 years of day in and day out direct patient care. From within this experience, I’ve spent almost 35 years directing the individualized use of bio-identical hormone therapy, primarily for women.

It was the use of bio-identical hormone therapy that originally sparked my interest in migraines, as most of my migraine patients were women, and many of them experienced some degree of direct hormonal influence of their migraine expression. At the same time, I also cared for hundreds of patients with migraine headaches, in both clinic and ER settings. Over these decades, I integrated what I had learned about both traditional and alternative care for migraines with hormone support and additional non-drug therapy options.

In the past few years I condensed and refined a “finding the root cause approach” to individualizing non-drug options for migraine headaches. The result is this blog and the Natural Migraine Relief course for paid subscribers, both of which which allow me to share these concepts and therapy options with those of you that I would not otherwise be able to meet with personally. Please consider joining us!
