American Headache Society

The American Headache Society (AHS) is a professional society of health care providers dedicated to the study and treatment of headache and facial pain.

The AHS was founded in 1959 and has presented an annual headache symposium since 1970 as well as two teaching symposia a year.

The American Council for Headache Education (ACHE) was founded by the AHS in 1990. It is a partnership between patients and health care professionals devoted to enhancing public understanding of headaches.

The society publishes a peer-reviewed journal, "HEADACHE The Journal of Head and Face Pain".
