Evaluating the effects of a validated yoga module on migraine burden and neurovascular biomarkers: Study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.

Migraines are common neurological disorders that cause significant suffering. They mainly affect young adults, especially women. Many people still face recurrent attacks, even with medication. This shows a need for new treatment options. Yoga might help manage migraines, but more research is needed. This study will test a new yoga program specifically designed for migraines. It will be a single-blind, two-arm trial with 82 participants. These participants will have migraines based on specific criteria. They will be randomly assigned to either a yoga group or a waitlist control group. The randomization will ensure fairness and reduce bias. Researchers will assess the effectiveness of the yoga program on migraine symptoms and related biomarkers. This research aims to provide better treatment options for those suffering from migraines. It could lead to improved quality of life for many individuals dealing with this condition. Clinical relevance: This study explores yoga as a complementary treatment for migraines, potentially offering new options for patients.
