A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial to Test the Complementary Therapeutic Efficacy of Tai Chi for the Prophylaxis of Episodic Migraine in Chinese Women
Abstract
The proposed study aims to preliminarily test the effects of a 12-week Tai Chi training on the prophylaxis of episodic migraine in Chinese women, and to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, compliance and maintenance of Tai Chi exercise among this population.
Conditions: Migraine Disorder.
Primary outcome: The difference in frequency of migraine attacks (the number of attacks per month); The proportion of responders.
Enrollment: 82 participants.
