Full description
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of manual acupuncture therapy between auricular points and body points in improving tension-type headache symptoms based on a headache diary which is consisting of intensity and frequency of headache days, a short form-36 questionnaire, and an examination of the press pressure threshold on eight pericranial muscles. If the use of auricular points is proven to be superior, then this method will benefit the patient more because it is more efficient and can be used as a protocol for providing therapy to patients with tension-type headache.
