The samples were migraine headache patients who were diagnosed with migraine headache (ICD-10, G43-43.9, U61.2), received service at Thai traditional medicine clinics, Pabon Hospital. The eligible criteria were determined to enroll the samples. Of these, 30 samples were included in this study. The data were collected using the intervention program and the questionnaires. The intervention program was the treatment of Shed-Haek and Cold Herbs Mask. The questionnaires consisted of demographic characteristics, history of illness and illness assessment such as: pain level, frequency of pain and degree of neck movement. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Repeated ANOVA. The results showed that after the treatment of Shed-Haek and Cold Herbs Mask, the pain level and the pain frequency statistically significant decreased (p <0.001).
