Chronic tension type headaches are frequently stress related and may occur in clusters. In order to treat this debilitating condition and reduce the intake of pain relief medication we would use a multidimensional approach combining a mixture of TES and biofeedback to learn voluntary control over muscle tension.

Once recognition of the onset of pain can be achieved then so can a reduction in pain levels leading eventually to symptom relief.

Since biofeedback is best used at small treatment intervals, in these conditions, it is helpful if patients either live in close proximity to the clinic or are able to travel.
