Primary outcome measures were immediate change in headache scores according to a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and change in the six item Headache Impact Test (HIT-6) between baseline and follow up visits. The participants in the control group completed the HIT-6 between baseline and follow up visits but did not receive OMT and did not complete the VAS. Mean immediate VAS score change for the treatment group and mean improvement in HIT-6 scores for both groups between baseline and follow up were analyzed for statistical significance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"j_jom-2020-0035_abs_004_w2aab3b7b4b1b6b1aab1c16b4Aa\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 26 patients were included in this study: 13 (50%) in the treatment group and 13 (50%) in the control group.

Statistically significant improvement in VAS scores was seen immediately after OMT in the treatment group (mean change, 2.1;p=0.002). Mean HIT-6 scores showed improvement in the treatment group compared with the control group, although the change was not statistically significant (p=0.15) from baseline to follow up visit.
