Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether TDCS is an effective prophylactic therapy of chronic migraine.

Conditions

  • Chronic Migraine as Defined by Criteria of International Headache Society (IHS)

Interventions

DEVICE

Transcranial direct current stimulation of the motor cortex

The area of stimulation is determined by by EEG system 10/20. The two electrodes are soaked in saline and then placed on the scalp. Stimulation parameters: * 2 mA intensity * Continuous stimulation for 20 min with rise times and fall times of 10 seconds each

DEVICE

simulation of Transcranial direct current stimulation of the motor cortex

The area of stimulation is determined by by EEG system 10/20. The two electrodes are soaked in saline and then placed on the scalp. Stimulation parameters: * The intensity of the stimulation current is 2 mA * The current is applied during the first 30 seconds with rise times and fall times of 10 seconds each. Then the session will be continued without actual stimulation.
