Craniosacral Therapy for Migraine: Protocol development for an exploratory controlled clinical trial

By John D. Mann, Keturah R. Faurot, Laurel Wilkinson, Peter Curtis, Remy R. Coeytaux, Chirayath Suchindran, and Susan A Gaylord

This team from the University of North Carolina looked at the increase of popularity in using craniosacral therapy to treat regular migraine sufferers.

This study investigated the safety and efficacy of treatments for migraines. Subjects receiving usual medical care plus craniosacral therapy will demonstrate significant improvement in quality-of-life as measured by the Headache Impact Test (HIT-6); reduced frequency of migraine; and, a perception of clinical benefit.

Results

Through the low dropout rate during the study, the conclusion of the study states that, with the help of detailed eight-week headache diaries from the subjects, craniosacral therapy proved to be an effective and safe treatment for migraines.
