SYNOPSIS Two studies, one involving 53 tension headache patients and the other involving 87 vascular (both migraine and combined migraine and tension headaches) headache patients, are presented in which a largely home‐based, self‐administered non‐drug treatment for headache was compared to a comparable clinic‐based, therapist‐administered treatment regimen. The home‐based treatment programs were equal in effectiveness to the clinic‐based programs and significantly more cost effective for both types of headache patients.
