Correction to: Manual joint mobilisation techniques, supervised physical activity, psychological treatment, acupuncture and patient education for patients with tension-type headache. A systematic review and meta-analysis

Background: Tension-type headache (TTH) has been ranked the second most prevalent health condition worldwide.Non-pharmacological treatments for TTH are widely used as a supplement or an alternative to medical treatment.However, the evidence for their effects are limited.Therefore, the aim of this study was to review the evidence for manual joint mobilisation techniques, supervised physical activity, psychological treatment, acupuncture and patient education as treatments for TTH on the effect of headache frequency and quality of life.Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted from February to July 2020 for clinical guidelines, systematic reviews, and individual randomised controlled trials (RCT).The primary outcomes measured were days with headache and quality of life at the end of treatment along with a number of secondary outcomes.Metaanalyses were performed on eligible RCTs and pooled estimates of effects were calculated using the random-effect model.The overall certainty of evidence was evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach (GRADE).In addition, patient preferences were included in the evaluation.
