Abstract:
Compared autogenic feedback training with a waiting-list control group as a treatment for children (N=28) with migraine headaches.

Children in the treatment condition were significantly improved at the end of treatment and at one-month and six-month follow-up. No improvement was found for the children in the control condition. (BH)
