Zusammenfassung:Most people have experienced headaches at one time or another. However, a significant proportion of the population suffers from headaches intense enough to be physically debilitating. Providing a detailed account of how to assess and treat migraines, tension-type, and combined or mixed headaches, this comprehensive volume goes beyond the acknowledged stress-headache relationship to consider a wide variety of stimuli that may trigger them
The book presents a functional approach to management that emphasizes controlling factors that determine the changes in headache activity. A treatment plan that includes treatment parameters, relapse prevention techniques, and the educational component of the program is presented. Strategies that focus on headache phenomena as well as those designed to control headache variables are included
Taking into account the psychosocial and developmental context, treatment is driven by the results of the functional assessment, which allows for a much more individualized approach. Illustrative case examples are included
