Brief summary

One biopsychosocial approach proven effective in headache treatment is basic body awareness therapy. This study was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of basic body awareness training and lifestyle recommendations in individuals diagnosed with migraine. Functional status will be assessed using the Migraine-Related Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), sleep quality using the Jenkins Sleep Scale (JUS), and quality of life using the Headache Impact Test. Assessment of functional status, sleep quality, and quality of life will be performed before treatment and after treatment (at the end of week 8).

Interventions

BEHAVIORALExercise

Participants will receive body awareness therapy. The program will be administered over an eight-week period and will include exercises appropriate for the study population.

Standard treatment will be in the form of individual information sessions lasting approximately 30 minutes for both groups. Brochures will be created for distribution to individuals.
