Abstract
Background Migraine without aura is the most known and widespread primary headache, more than one person out of 10 suffers from this form. The management of the migraine patient is complex and can not be separated from a pharmacological approach, considering that alternative and complementary therapies are increasingly present in patient management [1,2]. This study aimed to verify the efficacy of osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) in patients with migraine without aura.
