Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test an app-based biofeedback treatment in adults with migraine. The aim of the study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of biofeedback treatment using the medical device Cerebri, compared to wait-list controls.

Participants will perform 10 minutes biofeedback daily, in addition to daily registrations in the headache diary. Wait-list controls will complete daily registrations in the headache diary during the same period.

Researchers will compare the reduction in the number of days with migraine from baseline per 28-day period between treatment group and the wait-list group.
