Virtual reality mindfulness for migraine
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a virtual reality (VR) headset to practice mindfulness can help people with migraine. If you have migraine about 4-10 days each month and are already on a stable preventive treatment, this might be a way to add relaxation skills without new medications.
