| Abstract/Notes |
The treatment of benign, chronic, headache by chiropractic manipulative therapy is investigated in this study. Thirty three subjects were assessed, 15 retrospectively and 18 prospectively. The treatment outcomes used in the study included frequency, duration, severity and treatment satisfaction. These outcomes were assessed by questionnaire. The results indicated statistically significant outcomes in at least nine treatments. The possible mechanisms of action of manipulative therapy are discussed.
