Methods: A quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test study was conducted among 80 students aged 13–18 years studying in selected schools of Abohar, Punjab. Participants were selected using convenience sampling. A structured knowledge questionnaire was administered before and after the Structured Teaching Program. The STP included information on migraine, its causes, triggers, symptoms, and home remedies. Post-test assessment was conducted seven days after the intervention. Results: The mean post-test knowledge score was significantly higher than the mean pre-test score at p < 0.001 level, indicating the effectiveness of the Structured Teaching Program. Major improvements were observed in knowledge related to lifestyle modification, dietary measures, sleep hygiene, and relaxation techniques. Conclusion: The Structured Teaching Program was effective in improving students’ knowledge regarding home remedies of migraine. School-based health education programs can play a vital role in promoting self-care and non-pharmacological management of migraine among adolescents.
