Many chronically recurrent disorders of children and adolescents are often unresponsive to standard medical therapy. The Stress and Headache Management Clinic was established as a prototype behavioral medicine clinic to provide integrated therapeutic modalities. Using biofeedback and relaxation/mental-imagery techniques, 119 patients with the chief complaint of recurrent headache were evaluated. This paper describes the use, application, and efficacy of behavioral techniques for the management of headache in children and adolescents. Relevant treatment factors in behavioral treatment of pediatric headache are also discussed.
