Filter by:To determine the effectiveness of the Luco Hybrid OSA Appliance in the treatment of sleep bruxism and to aid in the treatment of associated tension/migraine type headaches in adults.
The aim is to investigate muscle soreness and stiffness in patients with Chronic or Frequent Episodic Tension Type Headache before and after treatment with amitriptyline - and to compare the results with healthy individuals.
A randomized controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of yoga on tension type headache and / or migraine in adolescents between 12 and 16 years, consisting of a four group design which includes an 12 week yoga course and a three-month follow-up period. Both adolescent and one parent will be randomized either to yoga or no treatment. Primary outcome will be pain frequency in adolescents considering pain catastrophizing of parents.
The present study aims to assess the quality of life of patients suffering from tension-type headache (TTH) treated for 4 weeks with different manual therapy-based techniques. The study design involved a factorial, randomized, double-blind, controlled study
Objective. To compare the benefits of spinal manipulation combined with massage therapy versus massage alone in patients with tension-type headache (TTH) on the frequency, intensity and disability caused by headache and on cervical range of motion. Method. A factorial, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted with a sample of 105 subjects diagnosed with TTH, divided into two groups: a) the treatment group received a manipulative technique followed by massage of the cervical and suboccipital region; a) the control group received massage alone. Four sessions (once per week) were applied over four weeks. The Headache Disability Inventory (HDI) was used to evaluate changes in the frequency and severity of headache and functional and emotional aspects of headache. Range of upper cervical and cervical flexion and extension were evaluated. Measures were conducted at baseline, immediately after the intervention (week 4) and at a follow up 8 weeks after completion of the intervention.
This is a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single dose of TNX-201 (140 mg) for the treatment of a single qualifying Tension-Type-Headache (TTH).
The physiological response at the myofascial trigger point (MTrP) to massage is not known, yet would provide important objective evidence for a treatment effect and clarify the resolution process of a MTrP.
Objectives: Verify the effect of auriculotherapy in patients with tension-type headache resulting from temporomandibular dysfunction. Design: Randomized clinical study Setting: Randomized Study Participants: The study consist of 38 participants randomized into two groups: an intervention group (n = 18, sample loss = 1) and placebo group (n = 20, sample loss = 6) Interventions: The intervention group will receive treatment with auricular acupuncture in the Shen Men, Kidney, Sympathetic, Subcortex, Adrenal and Cerebral points. The placebo group will receive auriculotherapy in the trachea point. Main outcome measures: visual analog scale for pain pain (VAS) and surface electromyography (EMG).
The purpose of this study is to study the effect of a physical exercise program on patients suffering from migraine and co-existing tension-type headache and neck pain. The investigators hypothesized that migraine patients are ofte physically inactive because of their headache and that they will benefit from a specific exercise program.
Tension headache is a common disabling disease and a worldwide public health problem. This research tries to demonstrate the efficacy of physical therapy, based on cervical training and postural self-correction instructions, which aims to increase the positive results obtained from traditional relaxation techniques (Schultz Autogenic Training). University students are selected, because headaches are very common in this sector of the population. The design is a non-pharmacological randomized controlled trial, with blinded evaluation of the response variables. The investigators compare two independent samples. One of them receives an only treatment (Autogenic Training) and the other group receives a combined program (Autogenic Training + specific cervical exercises and postural correction). Pain parameters (frequency, intensity and duration) and drug consumption are measured before treatment, and then, at 4 weeks and 3 months, to value the results.
