The main topics it aims to answer are: * To analyze the relationship between individuals' spirituality, pain thresholds, and anxiety and depression scores. * To evaluate the effects of different aspects of prayer (thanksgiving, adoration, confession, meditative, and petitionary) on cephalic pain thresholds in individuals with and without migraines. Migraine group: 55 participants. Non-migraine group: 55 participants. Number of participants in total: 110.
• Diagnosis of chronic or episodic migraine.
• Feeling comfortable performing a known prayer.
