There is a significant need for non-drug-based treatment of migraine, with most patients discontinuing medications due to side effects or inefficacy. Rebecca Wells, MD, Wake Forest Baptist Health, Winston Salem, NC, shares the findings of a randomized controlled trial (NCT02695498) of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) compared to headache education in adults with 4-20 migraines a month. Participants attended in-person classes of MSBR or headache education, and change in migraine frequency was assessed as the primary outcome. The results showed that both trial arms demonstrated comparable clinically meaningful reductions in migraine frequency. However, only those in the MBSR arm showed improvements in headache-related disability, depression scores, quality of life, and experimentally induced pain intensity and unpleasantness. The findings suggest mindfulness may be beneficial in treating total migraine burden as part of a comprehensive treatment approach.
