How can massage therapy relieve tension and migraine headaches?
When focused on the neck, shoulders, and head, massage can decrease the pain and discomfort brought on by tension or migraine headaches. This approach decreases occurrences of headaches, sleep disturbances, and distress symptoms. It also reduces muscle spasms and trigger points, as well as allows one to maintain a level of relaxation and stress-relief, reducing the chances of stress induced migraines. After I complete a massage treatment, I offer my clients self-care tips to perform at home and work to help retain the relief that the massage provides for as long as possible. Self-care to reduce headache frequency Chronic headaches usually result from multiple factors. You can decrease your headaches by reducing factors such as tension in your neck and shoulders, excessive life stress, hormonal imbalances, unexpressed emotions, or toxic reactions to medications or alcohol. Try keeping a headache journal or log to help you identify patterns that may be contributing to your headaches. Oth
