Abstract:
We conducted a randomized, placebo-cor rolled, double-blind clinical trial in order to determine the efficacy of classical homeopathic therapy in patients with chronic headaches. After 6 weeks of baseline observation, patients received either the prescribed individualized homeopathic medication or an indistinguishable placebo for 12 weeks. Outcome parameters were headache frequency, duration, and intensity, measured daily by diary. Use of medication for acure headache was also monitored. Of the 98 patients in the sample, 37 were randomized to receive placebo, 6I received individualized homeopathic remedies. Groups were comparable at the beginning of the treatment. The median age was 48.5 years; 76% suffered from migraine, 51% from tension-type headaches, and 94% were previously treated for headache. The median headache frequency was 3 days a week. Headaches were present for 23 years (median). In both groups, patients showed an improvement of one headache day less per month. The use of medication for acute headache was reduced. The headache frequency of 11 patients was reduced by more than 40%. Thirty-nine patients either did not improve or experienced aggravations. There was no significant difference in any parameter between homeopathy and placebo.

Abstract:
AbstractThis study describes the results obtained from a prospective observational research of homeopathic treatment for patients suffering from headache (migraine with- and without aura and tension-type headache). Fifty-three patients were asked to complete the SF-36 questionnaire at the beginning of the treatment and after 4–6 months. The homeopathic medicine and potency were not pre-defined, but were adapted to each single patient according to individualised homeopathic prescription. Most patients (73.6%) completed the study. There was heterogeneity in the answers (patients in very poor health as well as those with only slight disorders). Analysis of the data according to the concept of ‘intention-to-treat’ showed that after therapy, the mean and median scores of all life quality dimensions rose. More than 60% of the cases experienced an improvement in pain and the limitations caused by pain, as well as in limitations in social activities and health in general. All the differences between pre/post treatment were statistically highly significant, with the strongest results in the ‘bodily pain’ and ‘vitality’ parameters (P<0.0001).

Abstract:
Головная боль напряжения (ГБН) – это неврологическое расстройство, характеризующееся приступами легкой или умеренной головной боли с не-большим количеством сопутствующих симптомов. Распространенность ГБН у взрослых в течение жизни, по результатам 5 популяционных иссле-дований, составляет 46% (диапазон 12–78%). Основная причина ГБН неизвестна. Диагноз ставится на основании анамнеза и обследования. Многие пациенты самостоятельно лечат острые приступы и обращаются за медицинской помощью, когда приступы становятся частыми или хроническими. В лечении ГБН рекомендуют поведенческую терапию, купирование болевых эпизодов и профилактическое лечение. Острые приступы ГБН обычно купируют простыми анальгетиками (парацетамол, ацетилсалициловая кислота) или нестероидными противовоспалительными препаратами [ибу-профен, кетопрофен, напроксен]. Ситуация с обезболиванием при ГБН изменилась при появлении быстродействующих форм нестероидных проти-вовоспалительных препаратов, в частности ибупрофена, так как быстроабсорбирующиеся соли ибупрофена действуют достоверно быстрее, имеют более выраженный и пролонгированный анальгетический эффект.

Abstract:
Tension-type headache is the most common primary headache disorder. The life-time prevalence of tension-type headache in general population is between 30 to 78%. Tension-type has the tremendous socio-economic impact on the individual and the society. Unfortunately, it is the least studied primary headache. The pathophysiology of this headache disorder is not fully understood. The diagnosis of tension-type headache is based on the history, and general and neurological examinations. Abnormalities in peripheral and central nociceptive nervous systems in combination with environmental and genetic factors may play a role in the pathophysiology of tension-type headache. The pharmacotherapy of episodic tension-type headache is non-specific and includes simple analgesics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Tricyclic antidepressants are the mainstay in the prophylactic treatment of chronic tension-type headache.

Abstract:
Objective: Observational, prospective study to describe the homeopathic management of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) by a group of French physicians.Method: Women with PMS for >3 months were prescribed individualized homeopathic treatment. The intensity of 10 clinical symptoms of PMS was scored individually at inclusion and at a 3–6 month follow-up visit: absent = 0, mild = 1, moderate = 2, severe = 3. Total symptom score (range: 0–30) was calculated and compared for each patient at inclusion and at follow-up. PMS impact on daily activities (quality of life, QoL) was compared at inclusion and follow-up as: none, mild, moderate, severe, very severe.Results: Twenty-three women were prescribed homeopathic treatment only (mean age: 39.7 years). Folliculinum (87%) was the most frequently prescribed homeopathic medicine followed by Lachesis mutus (52.2%). The most common PMS symptoms (moderate or severe) at inclusion were: irritability, aggression and tension (87%), mastodynia (78.2%) and weight gain and abdominal bloating (73.9%); and the most common symptoms at follow-up were: irritability, aggression and tension (39.1%), weight gain and abdominal bloating (26.1%) and mastodynia (17.4%). Mean global score for symptom intensity was 13.7 at inclusion and 6.3 at follow-up. The mean decrease in score (7.4) was statistically significant (p < 0.0001). Twenty-one women reported that their QoL also improved significantly (91.3%; p < 0.0001).Conclusions: Homeopathic treatment was well tolerated and seemed to have a positive impact on PMS symptoms. Folliculinum was the most frequent homeopathic medicine prescribed. There appears to be scope for a properly designed, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of individual homeopathic medicines in PMS.

Abstract:
This study investigates the status of biofeedback treatment and locus of control (LOC) affiliation on the reduction of tension headache. Three LOC groups designated as internals, powerful-other externals and chance externals (using Wallston and Wallston's, 1978, Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scale) were administered an eight week electromyogram (EMG) frontalis muscle biofeedback training program using an Autogen 1700 biofeedback unit. Subjects were 12 female and four male undergraduate students who had a history of tension headache. Results indicated no significant difference in frontalis muscle tension between the beginning and end of sessions in either a biofeedback or self-control condition for any of the LOC groups. Further, there was no significant difference among LOC groups in ability to reduce muscle tension in either the training or self-control condition. Finally, neither biofeedback training nor LOC groups were significant predictors of headache reduction. Extreme within-group variability and small sample size affected study findings and these and other implications for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
Bakgrund och syfte: Huvudvärk av spänningstyp (HST) är vanligt förekommande. Det finns oklarheter avseende både dess patofysiologi och olika behandlingars effekt. Syftet med denna studie var att beskriva och utvärdera effekten av en individuellt anpassad beteendemedicinsk behandling i fysioterapi för patienter med HST. Metod: En single-case studie med A1-A2-B-A3-design av tre patienter med HST genomfördes. Utfallsvariabler var huvudvärksfrekvens (antal dagar med huvudvärk), huvudvärksindex (medelintensitet), konsumtion av smärtlindrande medicin, tro på sin förmåga avseende kontroll av huvudvärken, samt upplevd påverkan av huvudvärken på funktion i vardagsaktiviteter och på glädje i aktiviteter med familj och vänner. Resultat: Tro på sin förmåga avseende kontroll av huvudvärken ökade markant för 2 av 3 patienter. Huvudvärksfrekvens och huvudvärksindex minskade markant för en av patienterna. En av patienterna svarade först inte alls på behandlingen, men blev mycket bättre inför den sista uppföljningen avseende huvudvärksindex och funktion och glädje i aktiviteter. Diskussion och konklusion: Ett beteendemedicinskt förhållningssätt i behandling som grundar sig på funktionell beteendeanalys kan vara ett sätt att som fysioterapeut hantera patienter med HST. HST är en vid diagnosgrupp och det verkar då logiskt att behandlingen bör anpassas individuellt för att få bästa effekt.<br>Background and aim: Tension-type headache (TTH) is common. There are uncertainties regarding both the pathophysiology and the effect of treatments. The aim of this study was to describe and evaluate the effect of an individually tailored behavioural medicine treatment in physiotherapy, based on a functional behavioural analysis. Method: A single-case study with A1-A2-B-A3-design of three patients with TTH was performed. Outcome variables were headache frequency (days with headache), headache index (mean intensity), consumption of analgesics, headache management self-efficacy (HMSE), disability and feelings of loss of happiness in activities with family and friends. Results: HMSE increased markedly for 2 of 3 patients. Headache frequency and headache index decreased for one of the patients. One of the tree patients did not first respond to treatment but was much better before the last follow-up regarding headache index, disability and loss of happiness. Discussion and conclusion: A behavioural medicine treatment in physiotherapy based on a functional behavioural analysis can be a way for physiotherapists to handle patients with TTH. Since the diagnosis TTH is heterogenic it seems logical that the treatment should be individually tailored.

Abstract:
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior<br>A Cefaleia Tipo Tensional Crônica é uma das formas mais comuns de cefaleia primária. Aproximadamente 90% da população mundial experimentaram ou vão experimentar alguma forma desse mal no decorrer da vida, o que lhes pode ocasionar desfavoráveis mudanças físicas, psicológicas e sociais. Na atualidade, a doença vem sendo discutida pelos profissionais da fisioterapia a partir das próprias vivências do sujeito de maneira a dar um maior valor ao trabalho humanizado, permitindo ampliar as perspectivas de tratamento. Portanto, o presente estudo visa compreender o significado da vivência dos pacientes com CTTC em terapia osteopática. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de caráter qualitativa exploratória com base na análise fenomenológica proposta por Husserl e interpretada por Bello, cujo propósito é compreender o ser humano na sua totalidade, nas dimensões física, psíquica e espiritual. As entrevistas foram realizadas no período de novembro de 2012 a fevereiro de 2013, no hospital de Boa Vista; participaram oito pacientes diagnosticados com CTTC, na faixa etária de 20 a 60 anos. Desse grupo, foram utilizadas duas entrevistas narrativas para a análise do material discursivo: a primeira antes, e a segunda após o tratamento osteopático. Os resultados permitiram estabelecer cinco núcleos tipológicos: Corpo e Medicalização, atos de julgamento e escolha terapêutica, Atos perceptivos sobre as limitações no trabalho frente à CTTC, Relações interpessoais e rede de apoio, A experiência logo após o atendimento osteopático inicial para a CTTC. Os resultados estudados nos pacientes com CTTC mostraram apreensão, insegurança com os efeitos colaterais dos medicamentos e aguçada percepção corpórea. Além disso, percebeu-se que os pacientes desenvolveram estratégias peculiares de enfrentamento da dor de cabeça, tais como: recolher-se a um ambiente, com ausência de luminosidade, e som após resfriar-se seja em um banho ou utilizando compressas na nuca ou cabeça, com o objetivo de poder dormir melhor, como também percebem que, após o atendimento osteopático, melhoraram nos sintomas de dor, humor, fadiga, recuperação das capacidades físicas e cognitivas e alívio da tensão muscular.<br>The Chronic Tension Type Headache is one of the most common forms of primary headache. Approximately 90% of the world population have experienced or will experience some form of this illness later in life, whatever they may cause adverse physical, psychological and social. At present, the disease has been discussed by practitioners of physical therapy from their own experiences of the subject in order to give greater value to the humanizing work, allowing broaden perspectives treatment. Therefore, this study aims to understand the meaning of the experience of patients with chronic TTH in osteopathic therapy. This is an exploratory qualitative research study based on the phenomenological analysis proposed by Husserl and played by Bello, whose purpose is to understand the human being in its entirety, in the physical, mental and spiritual. The interviews were conducted from November 2012 to February 2013, in the hospital of Boa Vista; attended eight patients diagnosed with chronic TTH, aged 20-60 years. Of this group, two narrative interviews were used for the analysis of discursive material, the first before and the second after the osteopathic treatment. The results allowed the five central typological: Body and medicalization, acts of judgment and choice of therapy, Acts perceptive about the limitations on the work front CTTC, interpersonal relationships and support network, experience soon after the initial osteopathic care for CTTC. The outcomes in patients with chronic TTH showed apprehension, uncertainty about the side effects of medicines and keen insight body. Moreover, it was noticed that patients developed strategies for coping with the peculiar headache, such as retreat to an environment, with the absence of light and sound after it cooled either in a bath or compresses using the neck or head, in order to be able to sleep better, but also realize that after the osteopathic care, improved symptoms of pain, mood, fatigue, recovery of physical and cognitive abilities and relieve muscle tension.

Abstract:
Introduction:  Migraine is a chronic neurological disease, partly hereditery. One non-pharmacological alternative treatment is yoga, whose effects have been investigated in a few scientific studies. No one has in a scientific studie investigated the effect of medical yoga for patients with migraine. Aim: The primary aim was to investigate if medical yoga in combination with pharmcological treatment could have an effect on headache frequency, intensity, and/or duration for patients with episodic and chronic migraine. Method: A pilot study, with SSED-design, with seven patients. Everyone had different long baselines before intervention. The intervention was a period of sex weeks of medical yoga. A headache diary with frequency, intensity and duration was conducted throughout the study period. Results: For two patients (patient two and six) the number of days with migraine reduced, effectsize (ES) 0,50 and 0,39 respectively. For four the freguence increased. The experience of pain decreased for two patients, increased for three and unchanged for one. The duration of migraine is reduced for one patient (patient seven) and increased for five. Some are improved in secondary outcome measures. Conclusion: At present, the intervention can possibly be used for patients who are similar to the individuals who had effect of the intervention and are interested in medical yoga as a self-care, but further studies are needed, as well as larger studies to be able to generalize to the migraine group.<br>Introduktion: Migrän är en kronisk neurologisk sjukdom, delvis ärftlig. En icke farmakologisk alternativ behandling är yoga, vars effekter har undersökts i några få vetenskapliga studier, men ingen har i en vetenskaplig studie undersökt effekten av MediYoga för patienter med migrän. Syfte: Primärt syfte var att undersöka om MediYoga i tillägg till farmakologisk behandling kunde ha effekt på huvudvärksfrekvens, intensitet och/eller duration hos patienter med episodisk och kronisk migrän. Metod: Pilotstudie med SSED-upplägg, och multipel baslinjedesign med totalt sju patienter. Alla hade olika långa baslinjer innan intervention. Interventionen var sex veckors Mediyoga. Huvudvärksdagbok med frekvens, intensitet och duration fördes under hela studietiden. Rultat: För två patienter (patient två och sex) minskade antalet dagar med migrän, effektstorlek (ES) 0,50 respektive 0,39. För fyra ökade frekvensen. Upplevelsen av smärta minskade för två patienter, och ökade för tre samt oförändrad för en. Durationen av migrän minskade för en patient (patient sju) och ökade för fem. Några förbättrades i sekundära utfallsmått. Slutsats: I dagsläget kan interventionen möjligen nyttjas för enstaka patienter som liknar de individer som haft effekt av interventionen och är intresserade av MediYoga som egenvård, men det behövs ytterligare, samt större studier för att kunna generalisera till gruppen migräniker.

Abstract:
La cefalea tensional tiene una elevada prevalencia, con repercusión en el ámbito laboral y social de los sujetos que la padecen. Considerando estudios previos, el objetivo de esta investigación es evaluar la eficacia de dos tratamientos con terapia manual en pacientes con cefalea tensional.Se ha llevado a cabo un estudio a doble ciego, aleatorio, con 84 pacientes (81% mujeres) diagnosticados de cefalea tensional, con edad media de 39,76 años (DT=11,38), distribuidos en 4 grupos (tres de tratamiento y un grupo de control placebo). Los tratamientos incluyen terapia manual con: 1) inhibición del tejido blando suboccipital; 2) articulatoria occipucio-atlas-axis; 3) la combinación de ambas. Se aplicaron 4 sesiones, con periodicidad semanal, y seguimiento a los 15 y a los 30 días. La evaluación antes y después el tratamiento y en los seguimientos abarcó: valoración de la movilidad cervical (goniómetro cervical CROM), ansiedad (STAI-E/R), depresión (Inventario de Beck), calidad de vida (SF-12), impacto del dolor (HIT-6), percepción del dolor (Cuestionario del dolor McGill), discapacidad por el dolor (HDI) e intensidad del dolor (EVA). La frecuencia del dolor, ingesta de fármacos sintomáticos, horas de sueño y factores asociados, se evaluaron mediante un autorregistro. Los resultados han mostrado que el tratamiento con inhibición ha mejorado significativamente en depresión, impacto, discapacidad y percepción por dolor (p=0,001 a p=0,01), y en la flexión suboccipital y cervical (p=0,02 y p=0,03). Tanto el tratamiento articulatorio como el combinado, han mejorado en ansiedad, depresión, e impacto discapacidad, percepción e intensidad del dolor (p=0,000 a p=0,02); y en flexión y extensión suboccipital (p=0,003 a p=0,04). El tratamiento articulatorio mejora también en las rotaciones cervicales derecha (p=0,007) e izquierda (p=0,03).En conclusión, tanto el tratamiento articulatorio como el combinado son eficaces para los pacientes con cefaleas en la mayor parte de las evaluaciones realizadas. El tratamiento con inhibición, aunque con resultados inferiores, también ha sido positivo respecto a diferentes ámbitos de la cefalea.<br>The tension-type headache has a high prevalence, with impact on the working and social life of the subjects who suffer from this condition. Considering previous studies, the aim of the present research is to evaluate the effectiveness of two manual therapy techniques in patients suffering from tension-type headache.A randomised double-blind study has been carried out, with 84 patients (81% women) diagnosed with tension-type headache, mean age of 39,76 years (SD=11,38), divided into 4 groups (three treatment groups and one placebo control group). The treatments include manual therapy with: 1) suboccipital soft-tissue inhibition technique; 2) occiput-atlas-axis articulatory technique; 3) the combination of both. Four sessions were applied, with a weekly periodicity, plus two follow-up sessions 15 and 30 days after. The evaluation before and after the treatment and in the follow-up sessions included: measurement of cervical range of motion (cervical goniometer), assessment of anxiety (STAI-E/R), depression (Beck depression inventory), quality of life (SF-12), impact of pain (HIT-6), pain perception (McGill pain questionnaire), headache disability (HDI) and pain intensity (VAS). The frequency of pain, intake of symptomatic medication, hours of sleep and associated factors were evaluated by means of a self-assessment register. The results have showed that the treatment with soft-tissue inhibition resulted in a significant improvement in depression, impact, disability and pain perception (p=0,001 to p=0,01), and in suboccipital and cervical flexion (p=0,02 and p=0,03). Both the articulatory technique and the combined treatment showed significant improvement in anxiety, depression, impact, disability, pain perception and pain intensity (p=0,000 to p=0,02); and in suboccipital flexion and extension (p=0,003 to p=0,04). The articulatory technique also improves in cervical rotations to the right (p=0,007) and left (p=0,03).In conclusion, both the articulatory technique and the combined treatment are effective for patients with headache in the majority of the evaluations carried out. The treatment with soft-tissue inhibition, although having inferior results, has also proved to have positive effects on different spheres of headache.

Abstract:
M.Tech. (Homoeopathy)<br>Chronic tension-type headaches (CTTHs) affect 30-40% of the population and account for a number of absences from, and decreased performances at, work and school as well as recreational activities. CTTHs typically occur at least 15 times a month or at least every second day, and present as an achey or tight sensation that is felt around the head. The pain may last from 30 minutes to several days and varies in intensity. Conventional treatment is palliative, consisting of analgesics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which may produce adverse effects and analgesic rebound headaches. Lacticum acidum 30CH is a homoeopathic remedy that has been shown to have potential benefits in the treatment of CTTHs. Homaccords are the preparation of one remedy in multiple increasing potencies in a single vehicle. There has been no research done to date on Lacticum acidum Homaccord in the treatment of CTTHs. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of Lacticum acidum Homaccord in the treatment of CTTHs, using the modified Headache Diary and the Headache Disability Inventory. The study was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled matched pair study which took place at the Homoeopathic Health Centre at the University of Johannesburg (UJ) Doornfontein campus, over a period of four weeks. A randomised sample of 34 male and female participants between the ages of 18 and 45 years who suffered from CTTHs were recruited by means of purposive sampling via advertisements placed on the UJ campus. At the initial consultation (day 0), prospective participants were requested to sign the Participant Information and Consent Form. The participants were then requested to complete the Screening Questionnaire to assess their eligibility for participating in the study. Participants’ meeting the diagnostic criteria for CTTHs, and those whose symptoms matched at least eight out of the twelve Lacticum acidum headache-related symptoms, were eligible to participate in the study. Participants’ were placed into matched pairs, according to gender and age. Participants in both groups received one 30 mL bottle of their respectively dispensed and labelled medication. On days 1-28 the participant was requested to complete the modified Headache Diary at the end of each day and to take 5 pillules of the medication in the morning and in the evening of each day. The first follow-up visit occurred on day 14; here participants completed the Headache Disability Inventory; the completed headache diaries were exchanged with new ones, a physical examination with vital signs was conducted and an additional bottle of medication was given. The second and final follow-up vi visit occurred on day 28, where the participant completed the Headache Disability Inventory, and a physical examination with vital signs was conducted. The average duration (time), intensity, frequency of headaches, and medication use was recorded on a daily basis and the level of perceived disability from CTTHs was measured weekly. This was conducted by completing the modified Headache Diary and the Headache Disability Inventory respectively. The data from the study was evaluated and analysed using frequencies and descriptive tests, cross tabulations, the Shapiro Wilk test, the Mann-Whitney test, and the Friedman and Wilcoxon signed ranks tests ...

Abstract:
Headache is the number one reason for referral to a pediatric neurologist, and these children report a quality of life similar to children with cancer and arthritis; therefore this concern warrants particular attention to accurately diagnose, evaluate, and treat. Of the primary headache disorders, tension is the most common, whereas migraine is often the most disabling. Other examples of childhood headaches include migraine precursors, cluster, trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias, and neuralgias. The aim of this chapter is to define migraine and other primary headache disorders of childhood, discuss the neurobiology of headache, and review clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, and treatment.

Abstract:
Tension-type headache (TTH) is usually a dull, bilateral headache without accompanying symptoms. It is divided into three subtypes: infrequent episodic TTH (&lt; 1 headache day per month), frequent episodic TTH (1–14 headache days per month), and chronic TTH (≥ 15 headache days per month). This division is highly relevant for three reasons. Firstly, impact on quality of life differs considerably between the three subtypes. Secondly, the pathophysiological mechanisms also differ. Peripheral mechanisms such as muscle tension are more important in episodic TTH, whereas central pain sensitization with reduced antinociceptive mechanisms are pivotal in chronic TTH. Thirdly, treatment differs between the subtypes, with symptomatic and prophylactic treatment being more appropriate for episodic and chronic TTH, respectively. Non-pharmacological management should always be part of the treatment. Patients with episodic TTH are treated with analgesics, while prophylactic drugs (in particular antidepressants) should be considered in patients with very frequent episodic or chronic TTH.
