Summary

An individualised internet-based treatment from a biopsychosocial perspective for patients with migraines in primary care has been developed within the Vastra Gotaland region in 2019. The treatment program is called Learning to live with migraines, and goes by the acronym "I am" (Internet Approach to Migraine). In a pilot study, the treatment programme and its feasibility in primary care will be evaluated. It is hoped that the intervention "I am" can educate patients about their illness and help the patient manage migraine attacks so that the likelihood of difficulty and frequency of migraine attacks does not increase, as well as provide an increased function and quality of life.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

I AM

"I am" has a biopsychosocial perspective with a focus on pain management in migraines. The cognitive behavioural interventions being tested are Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy and Physiotherapist-led cardiotherapy. The treatment program consists of ten modules of texts, animated films with a fictional person to identify with, recorded audio exercises adapted for patients with migraines and filmed physiotherapeutic exercises with physiotherapists.The interventions in "I am" are personalised in that the first three modules and module 10 are for those who are being helped by a shorter treatment. The other modules, four to ten, are a more in-depth treatment for those who have frequent or chronic migraines. The participants are in contact with processors via message function as well as via phone at startup, at the middle of treatment and termination. The duration of treatment is 4-10 weeks.
