INTERNATIONAL MIGRAINE SPECIALISTS NETWORK
Backed by Science and Data, Targeted at Root Causes
Developed by neuroscientists, holistic doctors, and researchers, our cutting-edge testing and advanced therapy has been specifically designed to address the root causes of chronic migraines.
Initial Consultation
Your initial consultation conducts an extensive review of your health history leading up to the onset of your migraines and any current comorbidities you may have. This data gives us essential information required in identifying the root cause of your migraines.
Complete Body Systems Review and Testing
Your migraine specialist will guide you through an extensive testing program that includes the microbiome, genetics, and hormone systems to identify migraine causes.
Address Your Underlying Migraine Causes
Begin your personalised protocol designed to address specific underlying migraine causes. This typically involves resolving microbiome imbalances and nutrient deficiencies without drugs.

A New Approach to Migraines
Soothed migraine specialists are at the forefront of chronic migraine resolution. Our approach has been developed over years of research and in-house trials that allows us to target testing to areas of the body known to cause migraines.
Advanced testing procedures cover the main body systems including the microbiome, genetics, hormones, and blood markers.
This data uncovers a full picture of the underlying causes of your migraines and allows for the development of a targeted plan without the use of drugs.

What is Soothed’s approach to migraine resolution and how does it differ from traditional methods?
Soothed’s approach is to identify and address underlying processes that result in migraines as opposed to traditional drug therapies that target one symptom of those underlying processes, migraine pain, only.
By resolving root-cause processes we aim to not only improve migraines but also the overall health of our clients.
Read more about the underlying processes that lead to migraines here and see sample test results forum our trials below.
What does the migraine plan at Soothed look like?
Our migraine protocols are based on extensive review of scientific literature plus our independent clinical trials. Our approach takes the latest science in holistic and natural health medicine and builds on that knowledge to form a specific approach for addressing chronic migraines through diet and natural supplements.

How soon could you expect results?
Results vary from one person to another, depending on the condition. For example, a person who had been recently diagnosed with migraine may see results sooner compared with someone who had migraines for 20 years. Other factors such as age, overall health and lifestyle may play a role on how soon you respond. At times a plan may need to be changed (ie the dose of a supplement, or choosing a different one, just the same way your doctor may adjust your prescription meds). Generally speaking, a healthcare professional can evaluate the response to a treatment for a chronic illness about 2-3 months after starting it.
How much does Soothed testing and consultation cost?
Below is a list of our items. The Dutch hormone test and GI 360 microbiome test give us a clear picture of your underlying migraine causes and allows us to tailor your protocol to the specific migraine factors identified in those tests. See sample test results below.
Prices are tax exclusive.
- 1hr 15mins fist consultation plus 40 min follow up consultation $378 CAD
- GI 360 Advanced microbiome test (provided at cost with clinicians discount) $208 CAD puls $67 CAD shipping
- Dutch Advanced hormone test (provided at cost with clinicians discount) $347 CAD

Prices include suggested diet and supplement programs designed to address migraine causes and all analysis of test results. If you have completed either of the above tests in the last 12 months we can use those results. Please bring any blood test results to your appointment.
Sample tests, results and outcomes
Below are real test results and outcomes from females with chronic migraines in our clinical trials.
Female 22 yrs
GI 360 Advanced microbiome test
Dutch Advanced hormone
Symptoms: Chronic migraines, allergies and occasional slurred speech.
Significant findings: Microbiome infected with H Pylori, Bacillus and Streptococcus leading to significant gut inflammation and weakening of the gut lining (low secretory IgA). These factors were driving hormonal imbalances and further contributing to chronic migraines. Hormonal imbalances of excessive DHEA production were leading to high androgen production and further inflammation causing lack of estrogen clearance through 2-OH-E1 pathway forcing estrogen clearance through damaging pathways and exacerbating migraines.
Outcome: Specific diet and supplement protocol to address H Pylori, Bacillus and Streptococcus overgrowth. Subsequent rotation into specific supplements to address hormone imbalances of excess androgen production and to support healthy estrogen detox.
Significant reduction in intensity and frequency of migraines.
Female 24 yrs
GI 360 Advanced microbiome test
Dutch Advanced hormone
Symptoms: Chronic migraines, weight gain, anemia, nausea, sinus issues, anxiety and dizziness.
Significant findings: Microbiome overgrowth of Bacillus, Enterococcus, and Streptococcus causing weakening of the gut lining (low secretory IgA) and systemic inflammation. Hormonal imbalances influenced by gut condition and showing excessive androsterone production and lack of estrogen clearance through protective pathway 2-OH-E1 collectively causing intense frequent migraines.
Outcome: Specific diet and supplement protocol to address Bacillus, Enterococcus, and Streptococcus overgrowth. Subsequent rotation into specific supplements to address hormone imbalances of excess androgen production and to support healthy estrogen detox (towards 2-OH-E1 pathway).
Significant reduction in intensity and frequency of migraines, nausea and dizziness. Reduction in weight. Resolution of anemia.
Female 25 yrs
GI 360 Advanced microbiome test
Dutch Advanced hormone
Symptoms: Chronic migraines, PCOS, weight gain, constipation and anemia.
Significant findings: E coli, a harmful pathogen, presented in her microbiome test along with other harmful microbes Klebsiella, Enterococcus and Bacillus. Hormone test revealed a significant lack of progesterone leading to a state of estrogen dominance as well as excess DHEA production.
Outcome: Protocol designed to address harmful microbes, particularly formulated to target severe Klebsiella and E coli. Second stage involved diet and supplement protocol to raise progesterone, reduce estrogen production, and support healthy estrogen detox.
Significant reduction in intensity and frequency of migraines, PCOS and weight gain. Resolution of anemia and constipation.
Are Soothed tests, consults or supplements covered by GHIP?
Similarly to other alternative health services (naturopathic, chiropractic ), our services are not covered by GHIP.
GHIP covers conventional medicine consults and services. Instead of prescription drugs, our plans include nutritional/lifestyle recommendations along with natural supplements (i.e. vitamins, herbs) that have been evaluated and found to be effective in scientific studies for migraines.
Our diagnostic tests are not the standard ones you normally get from your family doctor, but focused on the underlying causes of migraines i.e. hormones, genetics, food sensitivities, imbalances in gut flora and more. These advanced tests aren’t covered by OHIP either.
If you have extended healthcare plans please let us know and we will let you know if you have coverage.
