About this trial
The goal of this exploratory study is to test a mind-body interventional approach for the treatment of chronic migraines. The main goal is to obtain feasibility information on the protocol which has been used in other similar conditions. We will also evaluate multiple measurement tools in order to optimize a follow-up pilot study evaluating the impact of the protocol on migraines.
