Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the contract-relax technique of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, and the static stretching exercise are effective in reducing the frequency, intensity and duration of headache and in improving the perception of quality of life in women with migraine.
Detailed Description
This is an randomized clinical trial, double blind, comparing two interventions in women with migraine, whose diagnosis was confirmed by a neurologist.
