Treatment for Cluster Headache

Visualization serves as a psychological intervention for cluster headache management by engaging cognitive-emotional regulatory mechanisms that can modulate pain perception and autonomic nervous system activity. Through focused mental imagery and relaxation techniques, visualization may help reduce sympathetic nervous system arousal, potentially decreasing the intensity and frequency of cluster headache episodes by promoting parasympetic activation and neurological stress reduction.
