Mindfulness Meditation for Primary Headache Pain: A Meta-Analysis.

Chinese medical journal April 5, 2018 Qiang Gu, Jin-Chao Hou, Xiang-Ming Fang

A meta-analysis of 11 controlled trials (315 patients) found that mindfulness meditation significantly reduced pain intensity and headache frequency in adults with primary headache disorders such as migraine and tension-type headache. Mindfulness-based stress reduction and 8-week interventions showed particularly strong positive effects. The authors suggest mindfulness meditation is a promising complementary treatment option for headache pain.
