Treatment for Cluster Headache
Behavioral therapy for Cluster Headache primarily focuses on cognitive-behavioral interventions that modulate neural stress responses and autonomic nervous system reactivity. By targeting psychological stressors and teaching coping mechanisms, these therapies can reduce sympathetic nervous system activation, potentially decreasing headache frequency and intensity through neuroplastic changes in pain perception and stress management circuits.
