Treatment for Cluster Headache
Shower, when used for Cluster Headache, provides rapid symptomatic relief through thermally-induced vasodilation and potential modulation of trigeminal nerve activity. The hot water exposure triggers peripheral vasodilation, which can help reduce intracranial vascular constriction and alleviate pain, while simultaneously stimulating sensory nerve fibers that may interrupt the pathological pain signaling cascade associated with cluster headaches.
