First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether adding TENS (a device that sends mild electrical pulses through the skin) and exercise to usual migraine medication can reduce pain and disability in women with migraine. Thirty-eight women participated, all continuing their prescribed meds. The goal was to see if these add-ons improve pain, muscle strength, sleep, balance, and quality of life.
