Abstract
Cluster headache (CH) is a trigeminal autonomic cephalalgia and the most painful of the primary headaches. The medical therapy of CH includes both acute therapy for individual attacks and prophylactic therapy to prevent recurrent attacks during the cluster period. Although most patients can be treated effectively, some remain poorly responsive to therapy. The objective of this report is to describe a low cost technique that can be applied in office by a doctor trained in neurofunctional acupuncture and can bring good results for patients with this debilitating disease.
