Abstract

Migraine is the second most debilitating condition affecting a significant portion of the general population, particularly young adults under 50. Despite extensive research, the etiology of migraine remains diverse and often multifactorial, with limited clarity on the specific underlying pathogenic processes. Consequently, the treatment of migraine lacks a mechanism-based approach. We present the case of a young female patient suffering for 8 years of chronic migraine and tension-type headaches. The manual therapy techniques successfully released the muscular tensions, considerably improving her quality of life in terms of pain and emotional well-being.
