The results showed that both headache frequency and intensity was lower in the people in the homeopathic treatment group compared to those continuing their usual treatment. Although overall evaluation of the two treatment methods showed they both improved headache symptoms, it was only those people in the homeopathic treatment group that showed consistent and more long-term improvement.

Another positive finding of this research study is that those people taking homeopathic medicine used 35% less medication (painkillers) and had 45% fewer visits to their Gp compared to the people using their usual painkiller medication.

This study gives hope to the thousands of people who suffer chronic regular headaches who perhaps might want an effective alternative to taking constant painkiller medication. This study shows that in some people, individualised homeopathic treatment could have clinical benefits for people suffering chronic headaches and can be effective at treating headache intensity and reducing the frequency of headache attacks.
