Treatment for Cluster Headache

Tai chi, a mind-body exercise, may modulate neurological and autonomic nervous system function in cluster headache patients through stress reduction, enhanced parasympathetic activity, and potential downregulation of inflammatory mediators. Its gentle, rhythmic movements and meditative components can decrease sympathetic nervous system activation, potentially reducing the frequency and intensity of cluster headache episodes by promoting neurological homeostasis and reducing physiological stress responses.
