The Effect of Cervical Stabilization Training and Vestibular Training on Cervical Region and Balance in Individuals With Migraine

ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2025

100 participants

Abstract

Studies examining stabilization training and cervical muscle endurance generally focused on headache as the main topic and did not focus on migraine. Studies examining the effects of vestibular training focused on the effects on vestibular migraine and did not address migraine holistically. Although the effects of vestibular rehabilitation and cervical stabilisation training on balance, cervical muscle endurance and joint position error in individuals with migraine have been examined separately, no study has been found in which all these topics were combined. Based on these reasons, this study aims to investigate the effects of two trainings on cervical muscle strength, normal range of motion, anterior tilt, joint position error, deep muscle endurance and balance in individuals with migraine.

Conditions: Migraine.

Primary outcome: Craniovertebral Angle; Tragus- Wall Distance; Cervical Range of Motion Measurement (C-ROM); Craniocervical Flexion Test; Cervical Joint Position Sensation Assessment; Mini Balance Assessment Systems Test.

Enrollment: 100 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 100 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
