Conditions We Treat
Most of our patients have already seen the specialists. They've done the tests. They've heard "everything looks normal." They're still not better.
We built Brain Body Health Alliance for exactly that patient—and that family.
Dr. Windsor is one of the only board-certified headache specialists in South Carolina, with advanced training in pain medicine, concussion, and complex neurological and pain conditions in adolescents and young adults. Our team includes a certified occupational therapist specializing in chronic pain and neurodivergent populations, and we are actively growing our comprehensive multidisciplinary team.
Our specialty is the in-betweens—the conditions that overlap, the stories that don't fit a single diagnostic code, and the patients who fall through the gaps of a system not built for complexity.
We are not the right fit for everyone. But if you're motivated, you've done your homework, and you're ready to work toward real recovery—we may be exactly what you've been looking for.
Migraine & Headache Disorders
For late teens and young adults with frequent, disabling headaches—especially when previous treatments haven't worked.
Migraine is the second most disabling condition in the world. For teenagers, it can mean missed school, lost friendships, and a shrinking life. Yet most young people with migraine are under-treated—managed with over-the-counter medications, told to "stay hydrated” or placed on waiting lists for specialists.
Dr. Windsor is one of the only board-certified headache specialists in South Carolina focused on late adolescents and young adults. He brings expertise in the full spectrum of migraine care: from acute rescue optimization and preventive medications to Botox/Xeomin injections, nerve blocks, mental health treatment, neuromodulation devices, lifestyle strategies, and functional approaches that look for underlying contributors others may miss.
We also treat:
Chronic daily headache, chronic migraine, and new daily persistent headache (NDPH)
Cervicogenic headache and chronic tension-type headache
Medication overuse headache
Post-traumatic headache (after concussion)
TMJ-related headache and facial pain
Headache in patients with ADHD, anxiety, or other co-occurring conditions
If you have seen multiple providers and are still struggling, it's not because nothing can be done. It's because headache medicine is a specialty.
Concussion & Post-Concussion Syndrome
For patients still symptomatic weeks, months, or longer after a head injury.
Most concussions resolve in 2–4 weeks with appropriate rest and graduated return to activity. But a significant number of patients—especially those with prior concussions, ADHD, migraine, motion sickness, anxiety, or certain developmental profiles—go on to develop prolonged symptoms that can disrupt school, sports, work, and daily life for months or years.
Dr. Windsor has extensive experience and expertise in complex concussion cases: injuries from motor vehicle accidents, concussions in patients with pre-existing neurological or psychiatric conditions, and cases where standard return-to-play protocols have failed.
Symptoms we commonly help with include:
Persistent headache or head pressure
Brain fog, memory difficulty, and slow processing speed
Light and noise sensitivity
Dizziness, balance problems, and visual disturbance
Fatigue, sleep disruption, and mood changes
Difficulty returning to school or work
Our Post-Concussion Recovery Program combines conventional neurological care, neurocognitive testing, integrative treatment, and care coordination—including support letters and school accommodation documentation.
We also offer a rapid early evaluation pathway for recent concussions (within the past month), because early guidance matters.
Dysautonomia & POTS
For patients whose nervous system struggles to regulate heart rate, blood pressure, and basic body functions—especially those who have been dismissed or misdiagnosed.
Dysautonomia refers to dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system—the part of your nervous system that controls things you don't think about: heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, temperature regulation, and more. POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) is one of the most common forms, and it disproportionately affects adolescent and young adult females.
Patients with dysautonomia often describe feeling like their body doesn't work the way it should—and they're right. They've frequently been told their tests are normal, their symptoms are anxiety, or that they just need to "exercise more." Many have been dismissed for years.
Common symptoms we treat:
Lightheadedness, dizziness, or fainting when standing
Rapid or pounding heart rate
Extreme fatigue and exercise intolerance
Brain fog
Temperature dysregulation and excessive sweating
Nausea and gut symptoms
Dysautonomia rarely travels alone. It commonly co-occurs with chronic fatigue, migraine, hypermobile connective tissue disorders, IBS, and anxiety—all of which we treat as part of a connected picture, not separate problems requiring separate specialists.
Abdominal Pain & IBS
For patients with chronic gut symptoms—especially when they have been told nothing is structurally wrong.
The gut and the brain are in constant communication, and disruptions in that relationship are at the heart of many functional gastrointestinal disorders. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and related conditions like functional abdominal pain are common, real, and often poorly managed in young people.
We treat gut symptoms in the context of the whole person—because in our patients, they rarely travel alone. Abdominal pain frequently co-occurs with migraine, anxiety, fatigue, and dysautonomia. Treating the gut in isolation usually misses the bigger picture.
Our approach includes:
Evaluation of the gut-brain axis
Functional lab testing including Organic Acid Testing and GI Map microbiome analysis
IB-Stim/Percutaneous Electrical Nerve Field Stimulation
Dietary and nutritional strategies
Autonomic and nervous system regulation
Targeted medication and supplement protocols
Chronic Fatigue & ME/CFS
For patients whose fatigue is profound, unexplained, and has not improved with rest—and who deserve more than being told to deal with it.
Chronic fatigue is one of the most misunderstood and undertreated conditions in medicine. Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a real, biologically-based illness—not a mindset problem, not deconditioning, and not something that simply gets better with a good attitude.
Many of our patients with chronic fatigue have overlapping dysautonomia, sleep dysfunction, pain amplification, gut issues, and immune dysregulation. Understanding how these systems interact is where we do our best work.
We approach fatigue with a thorough investigation of potential contributing factors: sleep architecture, autonomic regulation, functional nutritional deficiencies, HPA axis dysfunction, inflammatory markers, and more. We also focus heavily on energy pacing—a strategy that, when done well, prevents the boom-bust cycles that keep patients stuck.
This is not a condition where we push patients harder. We push them smarter by meeting them where they are and build a realistic path forward.
ADHD, Focus & Brain Fog
For patients who struggle with attention, organization, and cognitive function—especially when there's more going on than a simple ADHD diagnosis.
ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental conditions—and one of the most incompletely treated. Many of our patients have an ADHD diagnosis but are still struggling despite medication. Others have never been formally evaluated but have been managing with significant difficulty for years.
We bring a layered approach to attention and focus that goes beyond prescribing a stimulant and checking back in three months:
Formal neurocognitive testing (CNS Vital Signs) to establish a real-time baseline of attention, memory, processing speed, and executive function
Evaluation for co-occurring contributors to cognitive difficulty: sleep disruption, pain, dysautonomia, nutrient deficiencies, anxiety
Occupational therapy with Kelly Prater for executive function skills, sensory regulation, and practical strategies for daily performance
Collaborative care for complex patients who need both medical management and functional support
We also specialize in ADHD in patients who have other complex medical conditions—because brain fog from migraine is different from brain fog from fatigue, and treating them the same way rarely works.
Long COVID & Post-Viral Syndromes
For patients still struggling months after COVID-19 or another viral illness — with symptoms that haven't resolved and providers who don't have answers.
Long COVID is not a single condition. It is a constellation of overlapping syndromes — and we were treating most of them long before COVID-19 existed.
The most common presentations we see include dysautonomia and POTS triggered or worsened by COVID, profound fatigue and post-exertional malaise, persistent brain fog and cognitive difficulty, headache and sensory sensitivity, pain amplification, gut dysfunction, and mood and sleep disruption. In many patients, these systems are all affected simultaneously — and treating any one of them in isolation rarely leads to meaningful recovery.
What we offer that most practices don't is the ability to evaluate and treat these systems together, as a connected picture rather than a referral list.
We are not a Long COVID clinic that launched in 2021. We are a specialty practice with deep expertise in post-viral autonomic dysfunction, pain amplification, fatigue syndromes, and neurological recovery — applied to a new and challenging patient population that deserves better than being told to wait it out.
If you have been evaluated, told your tests are normal, and are still not functioning the way you were before your illness — you are not imagining it, and there may be more that can be done.
Fibromyalgia & Amplified Pain Syndromes
For patients with widespread pain, sensory hypersensitivity, and fatigue—particularly when previous diagnoses have felt incomplete or treatments haven't helped.
Fibromyalgia and amplified pain syndromes are real, neurologically-based conditions involving changes in how the central nervous system processes pain signals. They are not imaginary, and they are not simply anxiety given a medical label.
These conditions are especially common in adolescents and young adults, and they frequently co-occur with dysautonomia, migraine, IBS, sleep disorders, and anxiety—which is why treating them in isolation rarely leads to meaningful recovery.
Our approach focuses on understanding the whole clinical picture, resetting the nervous system through evidence-based strategies, and building a realistic roadmap that includes medical treatment, functional rehabilitation, pacing strategies, and psychological support.
Anxiety, Trauma & the Nervous System
For patients whose anxiety, stress history, or trauma is intertwined with physical symptoms — and who need a provider who understands both sides of that connection.
Anxiety is not a character flaw, and trauma is not just a psychological problem. Both have measurable effects on the autonomic nervous system, pain processing, immune regulation, and gut function — which means that in many of our patients, they are not separate from the physical symptoms. They are part of the same story.
We see this pattern regularly:
A teenager with chronic migraine and unrecognized generalized anxiety, where treating the headache without addressing the nervous system dysregulation produces only partial relief
A young adult with POTS and a trauma history, where autonomic instability is maintained in part by a nervous system that never fully came out of a threat response
A patient with fibromyalgia and IBS whose pain is amplified by a stress response system stuck in overdrive
We are a medical practice, not a therapy practice — and we are not a replacement for a skilled psychologist or therapist. But we are one of the few medical practices that treats anxiety and trauma as biological phenomena with physical consequences, rather than referring them out the moment emotions enter the room.
Our team includes occupational therapy focused on nervous system regulation, and we are actively building a multidisciplinary alliance that includes psychological services. For patients whose recovery requires coordinated medical and psychological care, we can help build and coordinate that team.
If you have been told your symptoms are "just anxiety" — we take that seriously as a clue, not a conclusion.
Autism & Neurodivergence
For neurodivergent patients—especially those with sensory sensitivities, chronic pain, or medical conditions that have been difficult to diagnose or treat in standard settings.
Neurodivergent patients—including those with autism, sensory processing differences, and other developmental profiles—are significantly more likely to experience chronic pain, migraines, dysautonomia, and gut problems than neurotypical peers. They are also less likely to receive adequate treatment for these conditions, in part because standard medical systems aren't designed for how they communicate, process, and experience their bodies.
Our team, including occupational therapist Kelly Prater with advanced training in sensory integration and therapeutic pain, is experienced in adapting care to meet neurodivergent patients where they are—without expecting them to fit a neurotypical mold.
We also recognize that many of our patients carry overlapping diagnoses: autism + ADHD + migraine + sensory hypersensitivity + anxiety, all interacting with each other. We are one of the few practices positioned to address this full picture together.
We do not treat autism itself as a problem to be fixed. We help neurodivergent patients access care for their medical conditions, manage sensory and pain challenges, and build skills that support the life they want to live.
What these conditions have in common
Most of them are invisible.
Most of the patients who have them have been told their tests are normal or unexplained.
Most have been dismissed, undertreated, or passed between specialists without a plan.
These are not rare conditions.
They are common conditions that require uncommon expertise—the ability to see the full picture, understand how systems interact, and treat the person, not just the diagnosis.
That's what we do.
Ready to get started?
The first step is a comprehensive medical evaluation — not a phone screen, not a free consultation, but a real appointment with a specialist who has reviewed your history and is ready to work.
We begin with a triage form that helps us understand your situation and recommend the right type and length of visit. From there, we'll schedule your evaluation and get to work.
We serve teens and young adults in North and South Carolina, with offices in Greenville, SC and Charlotte, NC. Telehealth is available throughout both states.
