Dr. Lowenstein Explains Temporal Migraines & Migraine Surgery Options

Do you find yourself constantly rubbing your temples to get relief from severe migraine pain? In this video, Dr. Lowenstein from the Migraine Surgery Specialty Center breaks down why temporal migraines happen and how surgical intervention offers a permanent solution.

Using an anatomical model, Dr. Lowenstein explains how the zygomaticotemporal and auriculotemporal nerves can become pinched as they pass through the temporalis muscle—especially if you tend to clench your teeth due to stress or during sleep.

What you'll learn in this video:
• The specific nerves and anatomy responsible for temple-area migraines.
• Why manual rubbing only provides temporary relief.
• How migraine surgery decompresses or safely releases these nerves to eliminate the physical trigger.
• Key statistics on success rates, including how over 90% of screened patients experience significant relief.
