Successful control of chronic headaches or migraines includes you! People who actively engage in behavioral strategies such as daily relaxation, distraction, meditation, biofeedback, positive self-talk and hypnosis to manage pain demonstrate significant improvements in quality of life.
Specifically, these patients are more likely to be active in their daily activities, have improved mood, rely less on medication and experience decreased pain intensity or pain frequency. So take charge and use the power within yourself to help yourself.
