Green Light and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Migraine Patients; a Randomized Control Trial.

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

There is a lack of evidence on the clinical outcome of green light exposure, as it is the emerging, novel proposal of treatment. There are a lot of researches present with small sample size which should be done on large population. In last conducted studies, session numbers of the applied modality are less. There is no comparison of tDCS with green light for migraine. The literature suggested the neuromodulation influenced by these interventions that may result in reduction of migraine.
