Although serious efforts have been made to palliate its effects, such efforts are still insufficient and ineffectual. This research is the first attempt in our country to assess the effectiveness of oriental meditation for the treatment of tensional headache through the creation of a metamodel. In order to achieve this goal, a pre-experiment was conducted, and through a quantitative methodology (pretest/posttest) the starting hypothesis was demonstrated, thus pointing the aforementioned metamodel as a tool of choice for the treatment of either tensional headache or anxiety.
