Shining a bright light at migraine sufferers may cut the number of attacks they have, according to research. The finding has surprised doctors, because victims are often told that bright lights can make attacks worse.
Around six million people in Britain suffer migraines. The condition afflicts one in ten adults and an even greater number of children.
The new light therapy could eventually be a cheap and simple way of easing the misery of an attack. Most existing treatments tackle the pain of an attack only after it has begun.
Experts still do not know exactly what triggers migraine but believe it may be linked to chemical changes in blood vessels in the brain.
Symptoms range from nausea and a stiff neck to tunnel vision and seeing flashing lights. During an attack, sufferers may also become sensitive to light and shut themselves in a darkened room.
But a new study involving a small group of migraine victims suggests light has an important part to play in preventing attacks. Doctors at the University of Torino in Italy exposed nine patients to 30 minutes of light therapy every other day, then studied the frequency of attacks after four weeks of therapy and again after eight weeks. Seven of the patients had suffered fewer migraines.
Treatment involves sitting close to a special electronic box that emits controlled levels of light. Researchers are not certain why the method works but think the light stimulates brain concentrations of important neurotransmitters such as serotonin - a substance which controls mood and has been found to be deficient in some patients with migraine.
