New relationships, samba school rehearsals, traveling, spending time with family, recording TV. Businesswoman, presenter and digital influencer Virginia Fonseca, who has been diagnosed with chronic migraines, balances a busy schedule with a medical job. After completing a year of 360-degree treatment at the Headache Center Brazil, founded by neurologist Tais Villa in São Paulo, Virginia, he frequently shares with the public the importance of staying up to date with the latest care.
This doctor will be responsible for monitoring Virginia to control migraine attacks and symptoms caused by the disease, especially in the face of triggers common to celebrities’ intense schedules, such as irregular sleep, fatigue, stress, excessive exposure to light and noise, frequent travel, and changes in daily routine. The influencer received encouragement from another celebrity under Tides’ care, country singer Paula Fernandez, who became a kind of “therapeutic godmother” to the influencer. Recently, Paula took to social media to celebrate the huge improvement in her quality of life since starting treatment for her migraines.
“I entered the clinic without even imagining that I would pass through the portal. The beginning of a new phase in my life. A light, painless phase where I could freely dream, create and become my true self,” the singer wrote in the publication. The artist completed four years of integrative migraine care and provided vital support and encouragement to Virginia to begin the same treatment.
“Paula and Virginia’s migraines are stable and they naturally live a pain-free life. The effectiveness of migraine treatment depends on maintenance. The effectiveness of migraine treatment depends on each case and the stage of treatment to control the disease and the symptoms it causes, with visits every three months or over a long period of time,” said Thais Villa.
Migraine is a disease characterized by overexcitability of the brain, the cause is hereditary, and there is no cure. 360-degree treatment is considered a revolution in migraine control, paying attention to all variables of this complex disease and caring for patients in a personalized and specialized manner. According to neurologist Theis Villa, one of the great scientifically proven discoveries in the preventive treatment of chronic migraines is the application of botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox.
“This substance blocks the release of certain neurotransmitters that are responsible for transmitting pain information to the brain. This treatment also uses drugs generated from anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies and is well tolerated and has very few side effects, so it can address some of the symptoms of the disease,” Villa explains.

Ajovy (generic name fremanezumab) is a medication specifically designed to treat migraine headaches, with the ability to prevent migraine attacks and improve the overall symptoms of the disease and symptoms related to sleep, mood, and cognitive performance. This drug is administered by subcutaneous injection and can be applied monthly or every three months.
“Migraine haunts patients from birth to the end of life. Multidisciplinary treatment guides patients safely, prevents worsening of symptoms and reduces the risk of complications that can impair quality of life. No pain should be trivialized. Living without pain is normal!” emphasizes Thais Villa.
