The purpose of our study is survey on actual conditions for social collaboration in headache. An online survey was conducted among physician who are members of the Japanese Headache Society. Responses were received from 308 headache specialists and 246 non-headache specialists. It became clear that in the future, it is necessary to collaborate not only with physicians but also with other professions that support headache treatment. For school-aged children, it is important to provide headache education from the early stage, and to collaborate with and raise awareness of the occupations involved in school-aged children (school physicians, school nurses, school nurse teachers, etc.) . For adults, it is desirable to establish a comprehensive support system by multidisciplinary professionals such as occupational health nurses and industrial physicians.
