Effectiveness of autogenic training on headache: A systematic review

The small number of studies retrieved in this review, with their variations in AT interventions used, in AT training/practice time, and headache measures used, did not facilitate rigorous evaluation of the effectiveness of specific AT approaches nor of the optimum length of AT practice for reduction of headache. More research is needed on the effectiveness of AT-only for headache, the most effective duration of autogenic training and practice, and the type(s) of headache for which it is most effective.
