A potato-sized abscess nearly ended his life in 2023, yet three weeks after emergency brain surgery, Dr. Brandon Brown was back adjusting patients. Today, the Migraine Doc shares the upper cervical secret that’s quietly erasing chronic migraines for thousands who were told “it’s just a migraine” and sent home with pills.


In this episode, Brandon walks us through the seizure that started it all, the moment his brain literally shrank back to normal the second the infection was removed, and exactly why he believes the brainstem (protected by the top two neck bones) holds the real key to migraine freedom. 


We also talk about the TikTok explosion (one video gained him 40,000 followers in a single day), building a practice on pure violence of action, and the simple daily habits he swears by to keep his own nervous system bulletproof.



"Migraines are the most common disorder in the nervous system. They're thought to originate in the brainstem, and now the research is starting to back that up and prove it." - Dr. Brandon Brown
