Apparatuses for reducing migraine headache pain comprising head-contacting expanses of compressible material having pressure-versus-deflection characteristics possessing plateau conditions defined by ranges of compressive material deflections associated throughout with substantially constant material compression produced by an applied, material-compressing pressure which is slightly less than that pressure which, when applied to the anatomy, occludes anatomical, venous-return blood flow, and shells substantially surrounding, and contacting, the compressible-material expanses, appropriately sized, and operable, with the apparatuses in place on a wearers' heads, to place the compressible material in the expanse in its characteristic "plateau" condition of compression, wherein such compression, at every location, is a non-adjustable value dependent entirely upon the fit-spacing at that location between a wearer's head and the inside of the shell. This disclosure additionally or alternatively discusses methods of reducing migraine headache pain by fitting apparatuses to wearers' heads for appropriate time expanses and other methods of reducing migraine pain.
