Migraine, which is characterized by attacks and many accompanying symptoms, negatively affects the quality of life of patients. Although different methods have been tried for migraine, there is no definitive treatment approach yet. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of fascia exercises as a new approach on the symptoms and complaints of migraine patients. The study was completed with 30 volunteer migraine patients. Participants were divided into two groups in a randomized controlled manner. While head-neck and breathing exercises were applied to the control group, fascial pattern exercises were performed in the study group in addition to these exercises. This protocol was applied 2 days a week for 6 weeks. Pain intensity, quality of life and sleep, heart rate changes, depression and anxiety levels and satisfaction levels were evaluated before and after the treatment. Fascial pattern exercises are an effective approach on the symptoms and complaints of migraine patients and can be adopted as a complementary application in migraine treatment. Since this is the first study in this field, it needs to be supported by other studies in order to increase the provability of the effectiveness of the exercises.
