Sponsor's own description

Chronic migraine (CM) is a common and frequent disorder, which has a major impact on the quality of life of migraine sufferers, interfering with physical function, productivity at work, personal life and leisure, lifestyle and psychological well-being. The use of a prophylactic drug treatment is recommended if headache is present more than 8 days per month. In addition, several studies have shown benefits of non-pharmacological interventions such as self-management strategies, manual therapy and exercise. However, no studies have been found that analyse the beneficial effect of a combination of a preventive drug treatment and a health education programme. Thus, this project would offer a service of health education through a telerehabilitation programme for patients with chronic migraine under prophylactic drug treatment. The aim of this study is to compare the combination of a prophylactic drug therapy and a health education programme in the preventive treatment of patients with chronic migraine.based on the hypothesis that a health education program for chronic migraine patients could decrease the number of migraine days.
