Official title
Examining the Effectiveness of Basic Body Awareness Therapy in Individuals With Migraine
Overview
One biopsychosocial approach proven effective in headache treatment is basic body awareness therapy. This study was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of basic body awareness training and lifestyle recommendations in individuals diagnosed with migraine. Functional status will be assessed using the Migraine-Related Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), sleep quality using the Jenkins Sleep Scale (JUS), and quality of life using the Headache Impact Test. Assessment of functional status, sleep quality, and quality of life will be performed before treatment and after treatment (at the end of week 8).
Interventions
- Behavioral Exercise
Participants will receive body awareness therapy. The program will be administered over an eight-week period and will include exercises appropriate for the study population. - Behavioral Standart therapy
Standard treatment will be in the form of individual information sessions lasting approximately 30 minutes for both groups. Brochures will be created for distribution to individuals.
Primary outcome measures
- Pain Diary [Time frame: Individuals will be asked to regularly complete a pain diary during the 4-week period before the program, during the program, and during the 4-week follow-up period after the training is completed.]
