Development and Implementation of the Integrative Toolbox for Headache Management

Migraine is a common neurologic disorder with recurrent headache and variable accompanying symptoms. Patients with migraine have suffered by an enormous burden on daily life and impairment of quality of life (QoL), but migraine is still underdiagnosed and undertreated. For early and better diagnosis and treatment of migraine, headache education and instruments for evaluation of headache outcomes including QoL and disability are essential. Nonpharmachological treatment like cognitive-behavior therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, lifestyle modification and trigger avoidance, biofeedback, relaxation training can reduce frequency of pain, disability, so headache education might be helpful. Headache diary and instruments for evaluation of QoL, disability and comorbidity like Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), Headache Impact Test-6 (HIT-6), Migraine-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MSQ) are useful tools to decide plans of treatment. When nonpharmachological treatment and headache education are well applied and evaluation of the QoL and disability are reflected, it will help improve the quality of life for migraine patients.<br/>J Korean Neurol Assoc 38(3):169-174, 2020
