A guide for patients and families

Everything you need to know about care with us.

Thank you for considering us for your family’s care. Families usually have a lot of questions before they start with us, and they should. This guide walks through what we treat, how we treat it, who you’ll see, how insurance and payment work, and how to get started. It answers most of what families ask us on the phone.

The short version

  • No referral needed. Most new patients are seen within days to weeks, and we try to see new concussions within 1 to 2 business days. Our first call gives you an exact date.
  • Start with one evaluation sized to the problem: 40, 60, or 100 minutes. If more than one fits, book the longer one. Programs are optional.
  • Direct pay with superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Labs, imaging, and medications still go through your insurance.
  • Insurance can still help after you start. Nothing is needed before your first visit. If your plan approves a network gap exception, it treats us as in-network. We’re also exploring single case agreements for expensive medications and devices.
  • A whole team, sized to your needs: physician, psychiatric nurse practitioner, occupational therapist, and nurse coordinator. Some families see one of us; others see the whole team.

Before you call, please read the full guide. Most of the questions families ask us are answered below, and it lets our call focus on getting you scheduled.

What we do

Expert, coordinated, and accessible specialty care.

The Brain Body Health Alliance is a physician-led specialty practice for children, teens, and young adults. We’re best known for concussion, headache, and pain, and we care for much more, especially when symptoms cross more than one body system or haven’t been explained seeing one specialist at a time. We’re also a place to start when you don’t know where to start.

We built this practice around what our patients need, not around a specialty silo. Traditional clinics fit patients into fixed visits, single specialties, and long waitlists. We match the care to the patient, from one focused procedure to a full team.

There’s no aging out at 18. We help pediatric patients make the transition into adulthood, and we put a strong emphasis on trusted, expert care that helps young adults launch into their lives.

Three commitments shape everything we do.

Excellent

Academic, subspecialty-level expertise in pain, headache, concussion, and the conditions that travel with them. Evidence-informed care, explained clearly.

Coordinated

One plan from one team. We talk with your other doctors, therapists, and school so the pieces fit together instead of pulling in different directions.

Accessible

Most new patients are seen within days to weeks, and we try to see new concussions within 1 to 2 business days. A nurse coordinator, and secure messaging between visits for program patients. After-school, Saturday, and telehealth visits.

What we treat

Here’s a closer look at some of the problems families most often bring to us.

Concussion

From the first week through full recovery.

Being seen early in a clinic, not only in an emergency room, is one of the strongest predictors of a fast recovery. New concussions are a priority, and we try to see them within 1 to 2 business days. For a new injury, we evaluate, build a return-to-learn and return-to-play plan, write school letters, and provide sports clearance. Because early care matters so much, we discount our acute concussion care, so cost is never a reason to wait. If recovery is slower, what you’ve paid is applied toward a structured recovery plan. Prolonged recovery and post-concussion syndrome are where we excel. They cross specialties, including headache, neck, vision and balance, sleep, mood, attention, and the autonomic system, and we can evaluate and treat nearly all of them under one roof.

  • Return-to-learn and return-to-play plans, and school accommodation letters
  • Neurocognitive and Sway balance testing to measure recovery
  • Headache nerve blocks, medications, supplements, and acupuncture as needed

Migraine, headache, and TMJ

Board-certified headache medicine.

Chronic migraine, daily headaches, headaches after a concussion, nerve-related head pain, and TMJ and jaw pain. We build a plan with prevention, a rescue plan for bad days, and a school plan, so headaches cost fewer missed days.

  • Preventive and rescue medications, chosen with your history in mind
  • Nerve blocks and trigger point injections, the same day when your visit has time
  • Botox for chronic migraine, with help through prior authorization

Chronic pain

Fellowship-trained in pediatric pain medicine.

Back and neck pain, joint and limb pain, nerve pain, CRPS, fibromyalgia, and pain that has spread or lasted longer than an injury explains. We look at the tissues, the nerves, and how sensitized the nervous system has become, and we treat each of them.

  • Ultrasound-guided nerve blocks, trigger point injections, and prolotherapy
  • Medications that calm nerve pain and sensitization, without narcotics
  • Occupational therapy, pacing, graded return to activity, and medical acupuncture

POTS and dysautonomia

Multi-system by nature, so it needs wraparound care.

Dizziness when standing, a racing heart, fainting, fatigue, brain fog, nausea, and trouble with temperature and circulation. Dysautonomia touches nearly every body system, so it rarely improves when each symptom goes to a different specialist. We treat the autonomic system and everything around it together: sleep, gut, pain, headache, hypermobility, and mood.

  • A practical autonomic plan for fluids, salt, compression, and graded exercise
  • Medications for heart rate, blood pressure, and symptom control when needed
  • Wraparound care for the gut, headache, sleep, and hypermobility problems that often come with it

Gut-directed care

Functional abdominal pain, IBS, chronic nausea, cyclic vomiting, and abdominal wall pain. We treat the gut-brain pathway that keeps symptoms going, including with IBStim, the FDA-cleared nerve stimulation device for ages 8 to 21, and ultrasound-guided abdominal wall nerve blocks.

Hypermobility and hEDS

Diagnosis using the 2017 international criteria, with genetic testing when it’s indicated. Then we treat what travels with it: joint pain and instability, POTS, slipping rib, gut problems, fatigue, and headaches, including prolotherapy for unstable joints.

Fatigue

Chronic fatigue, ME/CFS, long COVID, and the exhaustion that comes with POTS, poor sleep, and pain. We look at the autonomic system, sleep, nutrition, and metabolic factors, then build a plan for pacing and treatment.

Mental health and neurodevelopment

ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, autism, mood and sleep problems, and sensory differences, on their own or alongside pain and headache. Our psychiatric nurse practitioner and occupational therapist work with the physician, we’re always adding non-medication strategies to help people regulate mood and emotions, and Clarity offers a coordinated evaluation for ages 8 to 21.

We also see PANS/PANDAS, gifted learners with learning differences (twice-exceptional), and overlapping or unexplained symptoms. See every condition we treat.

The right tools for the right patient

We don’t start with a protocol. We start with you, and pick the tools that fit. A plan may include any of these:

Medications

Preventive and rescue medicines for pain, headache, gut, attention, mood, sleep, and the autonomic system. A cheek-swab gene test (pharmacogenomic testing) can show how your body handles certain medications. As a rule, we don’t prescribe narcotics.

Psychiatric care

In-house psychiatric nurse practitioner care for ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, and more, available on its own or as part of coordinated specialty treatment. Medication when it helps, and a growing set of non-medication strategies for regulating mood and emotions.

Regulation therapies

Calming an overactive nervous system with autonomic and breathing strategies, sleep, pacing, and graded activity, plus occupational therapy for sensory regulation, executive function, and head and neck manual therapy.

Procedures

Nerve blocks, trigger point and ultrasound-guided injections, prolotherapy (dextrose injections that help loose ligaments and tendons heal), Botox and Xeomin, and IBStim, done in our office.

Integrative strategies

Medical acupuncture, nutrition, supplements, and functional lab testing when it adds real insight.

Neurocognitive testing

Computerized testing in our office for attention, memory, processing speed, and concussion recovery, and help arranging full neuropsychological evaluations when they’re needed.

What we’re working toward

We prioritize function and getting back to living life: school, sports, work, friends, and the fun stuff. That’s one reason we offer after-school and Saturday visits, so getting care doesn’t mean missing more school.

Alongside that, we look for the vulnerabilities that set the stage for a chronic condition, the so-called root causes. Hypermobility, migraine biology, ADHD, a sensitized nervous system, poor sleep, gut-brain problems, and stress are common ones. We work to unwind them, not just quiet symptoms.

You don’t have to see our whole team

We don’t fit you into our team. Your current therapists, psychologists, and specialists stay part of the plan, and you choose how much you want from us:

One focused need

A single question or treatment, like Botox for migraine or a nerve block. Your other doctors keep the rest.

One piece of the picture

We take one area, such as headache, procedures, psychiatry, or OT, and work alongside your existing team.

Coordinated care

We coordinate the specialty care: one plan, one team, and contact with your school and other specialists.

We’re always growing. As our patients’ needs call for them, we add new services and clinicians.

Who we are

A small team, led by a pediatric pain and headache specialist.

We have deep experience with the conditions we treat. That ranges from a recent concussion in an athlete or after a car accident, to migraine in a teenager with learning differences, all the way to complex cases referred to us by Duke, Levine Children’s, MUSC, and Boston Children’s Hospital.

Blake Windsor, MD, FAAP founded the practice. He is a national thought leader in pediatric pain medicine. He trained in pediatrics and in pediatric pain medicine at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, and is board-certified in pediatrics, headache medicine, and medical acupuncture. He has held faculty appointments at Harvard, Boston University, the University of Washington, and the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville. In 2018 he founded the Southeast’s first combined pediatric pain and headache division at Prisma Health, and he led it for eight years. He serves on the board of the Society for Pediatric Pain Medicine.

Insurance and payment

How insurance works with a direct-pay practice.

We’re a direct-pay practice, which means we don’t contract with insurance networks. Here’s why. The insurance system was built around acute problems and single-specialty care: short visits, one problem at a time. Without meaning to, it penalizes the kind of care our patients need, which is longer visits, several problems addressed together, and time spent coordinating with schools and other doctors. Stepping outside that system lets us give that care.

Only our professional services are out of network. Labs, imaging, medications, and pharmacogenomic testing are still processed through your insurance as usual.

You pay us at each visit, and our fees are published. See our current rates. You still have several ways to use your insurance and lower your cost.

Using your out-of-network benefits

  1. You pay at the visit. Payment is between you and us. HSA and FSA cards are accepted.
  2. You get a superbill. It’s an itemized receipt with the diagnosis and procedure codes your insurer needs. It appears in your patient portal after each visit.
  3. You submit it to your plan. Many plans, especially PPOs, have out-of-network benefits. Your plan applies your out-of-network deductible first.
  4. Your plan reimburses you. After the deductible, your plan pays a share of its allowed amount. The check comes to you. How much depends entirely on your plan. Because one visit with us often does the work of several specialists, our charges are usually higher than what a plan allows for a single visit, so expect reimbursement to cover part of what you paid, not all of it.

Want an estimate of what you’ll get back? You don’t need one to get started. If you’d like one, your insurer can give a real answer if you share the codes for your visit: 99203 (40-minute procedure evaluation), 99204 (60-minute focused evaluation), 99205 plus two units of 99417 (100-minute comprehensive evaluation), and 99215 (follow-up visits, including the second part of an evaluation done over two visits). Ask whether you have out-of-network specialist benefits, what your out-of-network deductible is and how much you’ve met, and what percentage they reimburse.

Other ways insurance can help

  • Prior authorizations. We request them for medical Botox and IBStim.
  • Manufacturer savings programs. With commercial insurance, programs from the makers of Botox and Xeomin can reimburse much of the medication cost.
  • Car accidents. Auto insurance often covers care after an injury. Ask us.

Network gap exceptions

You don’t need to do any of this before your first visit. Ask your plan whether approval can cover visits from before the approval date; some plans allow it. Already seeing an in-network neurologist or other specialist? You can still qualify when they don’t offer the care your child needs, such as nerve blocks or a combined pain and headache plan.

When no in-network provider offers comparable care near you, a commercial plan can agree to treat us as in-network for your care. This is called a network gap exception. If it’s approved, your superbills count toward your in-network deductible and out-of-pocket maximum. As far as we know, neither North nor South Carolina has another comprehensive pediatric pain and headache program, and families have been approved.

  1. Check your in-network options. Call the in-network pediatric specialists for your child’s problem and ask about their wait and their experience with it. If you’re asking for pediatric pain management, also call one or two in-network adult pain specialists and confirm they won’t see a pediatric patient. For any other service, like IBStim, ask the in-network alternative whether they offer it, whether they see your child’s age, and how long the wait is. A long wait counts: if the earliest new-patient appointment an in-network specialist offers is more than 30 business days (about six weeks) away, write down the date they give you. Federal standards for Marketplace plans expect non-urgent specialist appointments within 30 business days, and with any plan a documented long wait strengthens your request. Write down who you called and what they said, because your plan will ask.
  2. Call your plan and ask for a network gap exception for care with Dr. Robert Windsor, NPI 1093951311, at Brain Body Health Alliance, LLC. Robert is Dr. Windsor’s legal first name, and it’s how insurers list him.
  3. Ask for two short letters, one from your primary care provider and one from a pediatric specialist. We have a template they can use.
  4. We send our practice letter to your plan, coordinate with them, and handle any prior authorizations. We dedicate administrative time to making your request as strong as possible, but the decision always rests with your insurance company. For patients seeing us visit by visit, our help with a gap exception request is a $100 fee. For program patients, it’s included.
  5. If it’s approved, keep submitting your superbills. They now count toward your in-network benefits.

Requests are strongest for patients under 18, for Botox for chronic migraine, and for IBStim. Approval isn’t guaranteed, and you still pay us at each visit. When you’re ready to start, we’ll send you our step-by-step family guide.

Single case agreements

We’re exploring single case agreements, which are one-time contracts with an insurer for a specific patient and treatment. They matter most for treatments with expensive medications or devices. Be aware that they’re time-consuming and don’t happen quickly. If you think one could apply to you, ask us.

Financing with CareCredit

Because prior authorizations, gap exceptions, and single case agreements all take time, financing is often what lets treatment start when it’s needed. CareCredit approval is fast, and it’s available for higher-cost treatments like medical Botox and IBStim, and for programs with a set length, like Clarity, the concussion Recovery program, and the Road-Map Consultation, all described below.

We pay CareCredit’s fee for 12-month promotional financing, so you pay no interest if you pay the balance in full within 12 months. If a balance remains after 12 months, CareCredit charges interest back to the date of purchase, so plan to pay it off within the promotional period.

Medicaid or TRICARE? Please tell us before you book. These plans have rules that affect whether we can see you and whether a superbill can be reimbursed. We’re not able to see patients with Medicare.

Insurance and reimbursementFinancing

Programs or visits

Visit by visit, or with more structure.

Every new patient starts with a medical evaluation sized to the question: about 40 minutes for a procedure evaluation (60 to 80 minutes with a same-day procedure), 60 minutes for a focused problem, or 100 minutes for complex or multi-system concerns.

Most care is visit by visit. You schedule follow-ups as you need them and pay for each visit, with any procedures billed in addition. Many families see us this way the whole time.

Programs add structure for families who want it. They’re never required. A program is bundled care: one predictable monthly fee instead of a separate charge for each visit and procedure, which helps families avoid unexpected expenses. Programs often work out to a discount, because a nerve block, Botox, or another treatment during a scheduled visit doesn’t cost extra. Program patients also get priority access to after-school virtual visits and Saturday clinics, and our administrative help with network gap exceptions is included.

“I was concerned initially about the cost of the program and insurance application with a superbill, but that has been a seamless process. … We searched for answers for two years and consulted with multiple specialists. The time missed from school, work, and combined insurance costs were greater than the cost of his treatment program. … We chose to stay with Dr. Windsor as opposed to transitioning care back to our in-network PCP. Once you experience what Brain Body Health Alliance has to offer, that decision is easy. My only regret is that I didn’t make the appointment sooner.”

A parent, in a Google review. Individual experiences, costs, and reimbursement vary. Read our Google reviews

Programs work with insurance too. Each visit and procedure in a program appears on a superbill at our standard rate, so you can submit it like any other visit. Any part of the monthly fee beyond those charges covers program access and isn’t listed on the superbill.

Start with a visit sized to your needs, and take time to decide. If a program makes sense after your evaluation, you have 7 days to think it over. Join within those 7 days and what you paid for your evaluation is credited toward the program’s intake evaluation fee. The 7 days matter because new patients come back for a follow-up about two weeks after the first visit, and we schedule that follow-up as part of the program. You can change or cancel a program any time with 30 days’ notice.

Our programs

Relief

Ongoing care for one focused problem, like migraine, IBS, or a stubborn pain, or attention and anxiety that need steady management. An 80-minute intake across two visits, then 60-minute physician visits every six to eight weeks. Procedures are included: if we think one is the right thing to do and it’s done during a scheduled visit, there’s no extra procedure fee.

Signature

For overlapping problems across several systems, like migraine, POTS, gut symptoms, fatigue, ADHD, and hypermobility. A 120-minute intake across two visits, monthly 60-minute physician visits, same-day procedures, and neurocognitive testing. Designed to stabilize, then step down.

Clarity

For attention, anxiety, executive function, sensory, sleep, and pain concerns, ages 8 to 21. A team-based evaluation month that brings the physician’s and occupational therapist’s perspectives together, with neurocognitive testing included and a results visit. We also help carry out recommendations from outside neuropsychological testing. Ongoing treatment afterward is optional, with several tiers.

Acute Concussion

For an injury in the last four weeks. Two visits, a return-to-learn and return-to-play plan, school communication, and sports clearance. If symptoms persist, the fee applies toward Recovery.

Recovery

For concussion symptoms that last a month or more. A five-month program with neurocognitive and balance testing at months one, three, and five, procedures as needed, and school coordination. Many families finish early.

Maintenance

For patients who are stable after a program. Visits every 6 to 16 weeks, messaging, priority evening and Saturday scheduling, and half-price procedure fees.

Functional Road-Map Consultation

A one-time, in-depth review for a complicated picture with many results and no clear explanation. Two visits over four weeks, testing, and a written consultation you can share with all your clinicians.

Still not sureRequest an evaluation and tell us a little about what’s going on. We’ll sort it out on our call.

How it works

  1. Request an evaluation. Request an evaluation online at brainbodyhealthalliance.com/get-started, or call or text 864-214-6766. Tell us a little about what you’d like help with and how you picture us fitting into your health journey. If you don’t know yet, that’s ok. If your doctor wants to send records, they can fax (864) 448-1650.
  2. We call or text you within 1 to 2 business days to answer your questions and confirm your visit type and time. If you’ve read this guide, it’s usually a short call.
  3. Complete your intake forms. We send them after that call, and your appointment is confirmed once they’re done. Upload records and past test results there.
  4. Your first visit is usually in person. Most families start in Greenville. North Carolina families can begin with a telehealth visit, and we’ll arrange an in-person day in Charlotte. Saturday new patient visits are scheduled by phone or text.

Sending records and test results

Past records, labs, imaging reports, and testing help us make the most of your first visit. Before your chart is set up, email them to info@brainbodyhealthalliance.com, or have your doctor’s office fax them to (864) 448-1650. Once your chart is set up, upload them any time through the patient portal at bbha.intakeq.com, including with your intake forms, or send them through secure messaging.

What to bring: past records and test results, a list of current medications and supplements, a list of what’s been tried before, and your questions. A parent or guardian completes consent forms for patients under 18.

At the first visit we take a long history, review your records, examine, and talk through what we think is going on. You leave with a plan and next steps. That may include testing, medications, a procedure (sometimes the same day), referrals, or a school plan.

Common questions

Can you help my child, or me?

We can’t promise results, and we’ll always be honest about what’s realistic. What we offer is current, evidence-informed care and creative problem solving. Many of our patients come to us after years of seeing specialists one at a time. We find that problems that seemed stuck often improve when three things are treated together: the body, by regulating and treating the nervous system and the organs it affects; the mind, through education, regulation, and treatment; and movement, to rebuild strength and support the body’s own recovery. The best way to find out is an evaluation. If you’ve already seen two or more specialists for the same set of symptoms, start with the 100-minute comprehensive evaluation.

Do I need a referral?

No. You can contact us directly. If your doctor would like to send records or a referral, they can fax (864) 448-1650.

How soon can we be seen?

Most new patients are seen within days to weeks, and we try to see new concussions within 1 to 2 business days. Our first call, within 1 to 2 business days of your request, gives you an exact date.

What ages do you see?

From birth to age 30, and most of our patients are children, teens, and young adults. We see a limited number of older adults by referral. If you’re unsure, ask.

Do we have to join a program?

No. Programs are optional bundled care. Many families see us visit by visit.

Will my child need to see everyone on your team?

No. We match the team to what your child needs, and your current clinicians stay involved.

Do you offer telehealth?

Yes, for follow-up visits in South and North Carolina. Almost every patient needs an in-person first visit to establish care.

Do you prescribe medications?

Yes, a wide range, chosen carefully for each patient. As a rule, we don’t prescribe narcotics.

Can a procedure be done the same day?

Yes. Office procedures like nerve blocks and trigger point injections can be done during any evaluation when there’s enough time left, since every visit ends at its scheduled time. Botox and IBStim usually need a prior authorization first.

Can teenagers get Botox for migraine?

Yes. Botox is FDA-approved for chronic migraine in adults, and like many treatments in pediatrics, we use it off-label for younger patients when it’s the right choice. That’s routine in pediatric pain and headache medicine. We can’t guarantee insurance will cover off-label use, but we know how to appeal and will help with it.

Is this integrative or functional medicine?

We’re a conventional specialty practice that also uses functional testing, supplements, and medical acupuncture when they add real value. Every plan is evidence-informed.

Will you work with my child’s school?

Yes. We write accommodation letters and 504 or IEP documentation, and we help with return-to-learn plans.
