Understanding Migraine
More Than a Headache — A Neurological Condition
If you’re searching for migraine treatment in Calgary, you already know migraine is far more than a “bad headache.” It’s a complex neurological disorder that causes recurrent, debilitating episodes — often with nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound — that can last hours or days.
For many patients across NW Calgary and Alberta, untreated migraine progressively worsens over time. At Infiniti Headache & Migraine Clinic, our migraine specialists provide accurate diagnosis and a comprehensive range of evidence-based treatments designed to reduce the frequency, severity, and impact of your attacks.
Common migraine symptoms our patients report:
Symptom Pills:
- Throbbing head pain
- Nausea & vomiting
- Light sensitivity
- Sound sensitivity
- Visual aura
- Dizziness
- Brain fog
- Neck stiffness

Migraine Triggers
What’s Triggering Your Migraines?
Identifying your personal triggers is one of the most powerful steps in migraine management. Our specialists work with you to map your pattern and build a treatment plan around it.
Trigger Cards:
Sleep Changes
Too much or too little sleep, irregular schedules, and sleep disorders are among the most common migraine triggers — and one of the most modifiable.
Food & Drink
Alcohol, caffeine fluctuations, aged cheeses, processed foods, and skipping meals can all precipitate migraine attacks in susceptible individuals.
Weather & Environment
Calgary’s rapid barometric pressure changes, bright light, strong smells, and loud sounds are frequently reported triggers by our patients.
Stress & Hormones
Emotional stress, anxiety, and hormonal fluctuations — particularly in women — are significant contributors to migraine frequency and severity.
Dehydration
Inadequate hydration is one of the most overlooked and most easily addressed migraine triggers — especially during Alberta’s dry winters.
Screen Time & Posture
Prolonged screen exposure and poor ergonomics — common in work-from-home environments — can significantly increase migraine frequency.
Your First Visit
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
Your first visit to our Calgary migraine clinic is focused on one thing — getting the complete picture of your condition so we can build the most effective plan for you.
01
Comprehensive Assessment
A detailed review of your headache history, symptom patterns, previous treatments, triggers, and lifestyle. Plan for 45–60 minutes. No detail is too small.
02
Diagnosis & Classification
Your specialist classifies your headache type using established diagnostic criteria — giving you clear, definitive answers about your condition, many for the first time.
03
Your Personalized Plan
You leave with a structured treatment plan — medications, procedures, lifestyle recommendations, and follow-up milestones. No vague advice. A real plan.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions — Migraine Treatment Calgary
Common questions from Calgary patients about our migraine specialist clinic and treatment options.
Q: What is the difference between episodic and chronic migraine?
Episodic migraine involves fewer than 15 headache days per month. Chronic migraine is defined as 15 or more headache days per month — with at least 8 meeting migraine criteria — occurring for over 3 months. Chronic migraine typically requires a more intensive treatment approach including preventive therapies such as Botox injections or CGRP inhibitors. If your headaches are becoming more frequent over time, specialist evaluation is important.
Q: Do I need a referral to see a migraine specialist in Calgary?
Yes. Infiniti Headache & Migraine Clinic requires a physician referral for all new patients. Speak with your family doctor about your migraine symptoms and ask for a referral. They can fax the completed form to 403-460-4569. See our Referral Information page for full details and to download the referral form.
Q: What migraine treatments are available at Infiniti Medical?
Our migraine specialist clinic in Calgary offers a full range of evidence-based treatments including Botox injections (Health Canada-approved), occipital nerve blocks, DHE infusion therapy, CGRP antagonists and other preventive medications, trigger point injections, and wearable neurostimulation devices. Your specialist will recommend the right combination for your specific diagnosis. Visit our Treatment Options page for the complete list.
Q: How long does it take for migraine treatment to start working?
Timeline varies significantly by treatment type. Some acute treatments provide relief within hours. Preventive medications like beta-blockers or CGRP inhibitors typically require 4–12 weeks to show meaningful benefit. Botox for chronic migraine is evaluated after two full treatment cycles (approximately 6 months). Your migraine specialist will set realistic, honest expectations at your first appointment.
Q: Is migraine treatment covered by Alberta Health Care?
Some migraine treatments are covered under the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP), while others may require private insurance or out-of-pocket payment. Botox for chronic migraine may be covered under many private Alberta plans with appropriate clinical documentation. Our clinic team can assist with providing supporting documentation for your insurance submission. We recommend confirming coverage directly with your insurer prior to treatment.
Q: How do I get a referral for migraine treatment in Calgary?
Start by booking an appointment with your family doctor and describing your migraine symptoms in detail — frequency, severity, duration, and how they impact your daily life. Ask them to refer you to Infiniti Headache & Migraine Clinic. Your doctor can download our referral form from the Referral page and fax it to 403-460-4569. Our team will contact you to schedule your first appointment.
