Klinische Studie behauptet Erfolge bei Migräne durch chiropraktische Behandlung [Allgemein]
24 Mai 05
72% berichteten deutliche oder spürbare Verbesserungen; Placebo-Gruppe erhielt "elektrische Scheinbehandlung"
An der Studie nahmen insgesamt 123 Migräne-Leidende teil, die aus einer Gruppe von 1.000 Interessenten ausgewählt wurden. Diese Teilnehmer wurden in 2 Gruppen aufgeteilt: eine Gruppe erhielt eine chiropraktische Behandlung, die andere (Placebo) nur eine angebliche "elektische physikalische Therapie".
22% der chiropraktischen Gruppe stellten eine deutliche Verbesserung (mindestens 60%) ihrer Symptome fest. Weitere 50% berichteten von spürbaren Verbesserungen.
Wie signifikant die spürbaren Verbesserungen waren und wie die Entwicklung bei der Placebogruppe aussah, wird nicht berichtet:
Clinical trial proves link between chiropractic and migraines
Seventy-two per cent of migraine sufferers in a clinical trial experienced either 'substantial' or 'noticeable' improvement after a period of chiropractic treatment, defying historical skepticism of chiropractics by some medical practitioners.
The randomised clinical trial was undertaken by Dr Peter Tuchin, a chiropractor for the past 20 years, as part of his recently-completed PhD thesis at Macquarie University.
"Around 22 per cent [of patients] had substantial reduction - which means that more than 60 percent of their symptoms reduced during the course of the treatment," Tuchin says. "What makes this a really strong result is that this was a really chronic group - the average length of time they'd had migraines was 18 years. To get a change of that sort of magnitude in a really chronic group was quite amazing.
"Another 50 per cent had quite noticeable improvement. They either found that the frequency of the migraines was less, the length of time they had them was less or that they didn't need to use their medications as much. This last result is very significant because some of the migraine medications are very strong drugs which have lots of side effects. Some of the migraine medications also have the problem of giving instant relief to the migraine, but creating another 'rebound migraine' the next day."
The trial used 123 migraine sufferers, whittled down from around 1000 who applied after seeing a television program about the research. This group was divided into a treatment group who received chiropractic care, and a control group who were told they were receiving a form of electrical physical therapy.
"Both groups kept a record of their migraines for the whole six months, noting down how often they got them, how severe they were, how long they lasted, and if there was anything they could think of that contributed to them," Tuchin explains. "For two months prior to any treatment they just diarised their migraines, followed by two months of treatment and then two months of post-treatment."
