Since 1995 Pys Headache and Pain Clinic (Pys Headache Method) ( North Shore Headache clinic, Northshoreheadacheclinic.com ) provides treatment for patients with headaches, migraine injury and dysfunction including acute and chronic pain. We are located 25 min north of Chicago.
I use gentle and effective osteopathic manual therapy, including cranial osteopathy, to treat a variety of ailments from headaches, migraines, acute injuries, chronic conditions and arthritis.
My biggest challenge working with many of my headache and chronic pain patients is helping them believe that they can live a symptom free life without pain. Unfortunately, many of them are so resigned to living with it they don’t believe it can be overcome. The good news: Possibilities are in your favor that you don’t have to live with it any longer. The sad news: If you have endured chronic pain for a long time and have tried without success to get rid of it, you may unfortunately be so resigned to living with it that you may choose to do nothing.

Not only is he a doctor who truly cares for his patients, he’s also very personable 10/10 cool guy all around. Most importantly however his treatments actually work! As someone who’s endured many concussions and falls I really thought I was stuck with chronic pain.. but it’s gone! Go here and see for yourself.

I started having migraines in middle school and saw Michael when I was having headaches. He was able to help me. My headaches have changed as I got older and I started going back to Michael. He’s been able to help me with my tension headaches, neck pain, and posture. I would highly recommend Michael for his unique approach to helping my headaches.

My primary doctor recommended I see Michael Pys for neck and back pain. Michael is professional, knowledgeable and each visit works on different areas to relieve my chronic pain. He collaborates with Dr. Barbara to address my specific problems. They both encourage me to participate in my wellness and hold me accountable. I would encourage anyone dealing with chronic pain to call Dr. Barbara and Michael Pys.

I was referred to Drs Michael and Barbara Pys from my general practitioner for chronic headaches/migraines. In my first few weeks, it has been a very positive experience. My headaches have reduced in both frequency and duration. The treatment has been a combination of manual therapy and at home exercises/posture advice. I would highly recommend this practice.

Referred by my GP, Michael was very helpful with pain relief and education concerning my lower back, hip, and leg pain.
