Exercise is assumed to have a positive effect on migraine. However, none of the few studies on this topic can prove the expected positive influence of exercise. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study was to develop a training program suitable for migraine patients and to examine its effect on migraine. 16 patients were examined. 8 migraine patients completed a 10-week aerobic running exercise program consisting of 3 workouts per week. The program was developed by sports scientists especially to increase the fitness level. Physical fitness, i. e., physical working capacity, was assessed using a PWC 150 test. There was also a control group of 8 patients without any special physical training. Migraine patients of the exercise group showed both a reduction in the number of migraine days per month (p=0.048) and the intensity of the attacks (p=0.028). An increase in fitness level resulted in a lowered stress level. Stress strategies like "displacement activity" (r=-0.715; p=0.046), "looking for self-affirmation" (r=-0.742; p=0.035) and "feelings of aggression" (r=-0.802; p=0.017) were reduced. Increasing the level of fitness (PWC 150) is one predictor for migraine improvement (r=0.409, p=0.031). Aerobic exercise which leads to a better fitness level is an alternative therapy method for migraine.
运动被认为对偏头痛有积极影响。然而，关于这个主题的少数研究都无法证明运动的预期积极影响。因此，本初步研究的目的是制定适合偏头痛患者的训练计划，并研究其对偏头痛的影响。共检查了 16 名患者。8 名偏头痛患者完成了一项为期 10 周的有氧运动跑步训练计划，每周进行 3 次锻炼。该计划由运动科学家专门制定，旨在提高健康水平。使用 PWC 150 测试评估身体适应性，即身体工作能力。还有一个 8 名患者的对照组，他们没有接受任何特殊的体能训练。运动组的偏头痛患者每月偏头痛天数（p=0.048）和发作强度（p=0.028）均有所降低。健康水平的提高导致压力水平降低。“转移活动”（r=-0.715；p=0.046）、“寻找自我肯定”（r=-0.742；p=0.035）和“攻击性感觉”（r=-0.802；p=0.017）等压力策略减少。健身水平的提高（PWC 150）是偏头痛改善的一个预测因素（r=0.409，p=0.031）。导致健康水平提高的有氧运动是偏头痛的一种替代治疗方法。
