From the association Fysiotherapie & Wetenschap Marceline Willekens will start her master thesis with the Headache in Control (HiC) study:
The effect of Locus of Control Additional to Mobilisation Therapy for Cervicogenic Headache in Adults: a pilot study
The aim of the HiC-study is to determine the effects of Locus of Control (LoC) and physical therapy mobilisation techniques in adults with cervicogene headache. Patients allocated to the intervention group will receive therapy according to LoC and mobilisation techniques of the cervical and thoracic spine. Patients allocated to the controle group will only receive mobilisation techniques of the cervical and thoracic spine. The effects will be measured using the Cervical Range of Motion (CROM) and the Headache-Specific Locus of Controle scale (HSLC) translate and validate in Dutch.
