According to Mitsikostas & Rapoport (2015), migraines are characterized by recurrent, severe attacks of headaches and are often accompanied by other symptoms. Migraines affect approximately 12 % of the general population and affects women three time more than men (Mitsikostas & Rapoport, 2015). General prevention includes lifestyle modifications, stress management, healthy diet, exercise, avoiding precipitants, biofeedback and prophylactic medication for frequent severe attacks (Domino& Baldor, 2016).
