Saints-Protectors From Headache: Historical Hints of Suggestive Therapy?
A short overview of several saints, venerated in Christian tradition as protectors from headache, is offered as an introduction to a more substantial debate on the possibility and value of analyzing historical literary and iconographic sources and their interpretation. Headache of possible psychosomatic origin allows (auto)suggestive therapy obtained by the invocation of saints to have had considerable success. This possibility favors the opinion that historical material can be useful not only for cultural-anthropological, but also for modern medical considerations as well.
