Background of the study: Migraine is a neurological condition which is characterized by recurrent headaches and neurological symptoms which are lasting for 04 – 72 hrs., with unilateral location and pulsating quality2. 01 out of 04 people in India have been seen to be suffering from migraine. Patients often request no pharmacological alternatives for the resolution of migraine3. Recent advances have shown that exercise and relaxation training affect migraine. But lack of combined exercise is more effective brought about the background of the study. The objective of this study is to determine the combined effect of aerobic exercise and progressive muscle relaxation training on migraines compared with neck-specific strengthening exercises.

Methodology: This is the experimental study of pre-and post-test types with 30 subjects. Based on the inclusion criteria, individuals were divided into 2 groups, Group A (experimental group) and Group B (control group) with 15 samples in each group. In Group A aerobic exercise progressive relaxation exercises, and Neck specific strengthening exercises were given. Group B only received Neck-specific strengthening exercises.

Results: Based on statistical analysis, the result of the present study shows there is a statistically significant difference in pre-test and post-test values in the MIDAS and 11-Point pain scale. The experimental group shows a reduction in the frequency in patients with migraine.

Conclusion: The study concludes that the combined effect of aerobic exercise and progressive relaxation training shows a significant reduction in the frequency of migraines.
