Abstract

<p>Migraine is a disease that is highly disruptive to daily life, affects the quality of life of patients, and causes a significant burden on patients and social loss. It is now known that not only biological but also psychosocial factors influence migraine induction and maintenance. Headache perception, responses to pain, and coping are considered as factors in symptom maintenance. Cognitive behavioral therapy is expected to be effective when medication alone is insufficient or when psychosocial factors are thought to underlie the symptoms. Many overseas studies have suggested the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy for migraines; however, there have been few reports on practice and research in Japan, and further practice and validation are needed. Against this background, a manual for cognitive-behavioral therapy for patients with refractory migraine was developed.</p>
