Treatment for Cluster Headache

Compression wear for Cluster Headache acts by applying external pressure to specific cranial and cervical regions, potentially modulating trigeminal nerve activity and reducing vascular tension. The mechanical compression may stimulate proprioceptive and mechanoreceptive pathways, potentially interrupting pain signaling and providing sympathetic nervous system regulation that can mitigate headache intensity and duration.
