Summary

This study tested whether a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) combined with physical therapy can reduce pain in women with chronic migraine. 80 women aged 18-50 were split into four groups to compare the treatments alone or together. The goal was to see if these non-drug approaches could lessen pain intensity and improve quality of life.
