Summary

The observational study aims to investigate the effects of a multimodal treatment program for headache patients in a day clinic service. The setting provides one week of treatment including a combination of medical consultation, physiotherapy, psychological therapy, occupational therapy, progressive muscle relaxation and disease specific education. Outcome measures are the disease-specific impact on daily activities, general quality of life, psychological impact and headache frequency. Moreover, the study sought to identify parameters that best predict efficacy of the intervention. Therefore, standardized questionnaires are established in three points in time, to evaluate the pre- and post-treatment status.
