The American Headache Society (AHS) is a professional
society of health care providers dedicated to the study
and treatment of headache and face pain. Founded in
1959, AHS brings together physicians and other health
providers from various fields and specialties to share
concepts and developments about headache and related
conditions.
The educational objectives of AHS are to continue to improve
the knowledge, skills and professional performance of physicians,
psychologists and other health professionals in the care of
patients with head, neck and orofacial pain by:
- Providing a forum for presentation of free scientific
communication on research and clinical practice
- Providing educational symposia
- Improving education in medical schools and residency
programs
- Identifying and developing new educational initiatives
- Supporting educational programs directed to people with
head, neck and orofacial pain
The public portion of this web site offers clinically
oriented information on headache as well as information
on AHS programs and activities. This information is
intended primarily for health care professionals.
Headache sufferers and other interested non-professionals
may wish to consult the information offered by the
AHS-affiliated patient organization, the
American Council for
Headache Education (ACHE).
