Abstract
MAYBE. Among patients with chronic tension headaches, manual therapies may reduce headache frequency more than sham manual therapy, usual care, or exercise treatments-by 1.5 to 4.2 headaches or days with headache per week (strength of recommendation, B; preponderance of evidence from primarily small, heterogeneous randomized controlled trials [RCTs]).
