Materials and Methods: This study was a semi-experimental design and subjects included 22 women with migraine headache. The mean age of experimental group31.69 ± 6.53 years, and the mean age of control group (n = 9) was 37.55 ± 9.30 years, that were non-randomly selected and divided into experimental (n = 13) and control (n = 9) groups. The control subjects were treated only by medication, but the experimental group in addition to medication, performed aerobic exercises 3 times/ week, 30-60 minutes for 12 weeks. Results: We used independent t-test of mean differences to analysis of data. Findings of research showed that, there was significant reduction in headache severity of experimental group subjects. The headache severity was as follows (pretest = 34.23 ± 19.95 vs. posttest = 14.30 ± 8.77).
