Brief summary (from the registry)
Therapeutic exercise, including aerobic activity and strength training, has shown promise in treating primary headaches with a moderate effect size, despite limited evidence. Implementation requires specialized professionals, infrastructure, and defined care pathways. These strategies are cost-effective for similar chronic pain conditions. More research is needed to better understand the varying effects on headache frequency, duration, and intensity in larger patient samples.
