I get migrains way to much!?!
Question: I get migrains way to much!?
Answers:
You are wrong on that one, the migraines are caused by tight neck muscles which at times can involve the back muscles when the migraines are really bad. The neck muscles go to the top of your head where they connect to muscles going around the head. When the neck muscles get tight they pull on the head muscles and when they go into pain you have your migraine. Tight muscles don't show up on the scans so they will never find these in them. The nerves for your eyes go to the back of your head passing next to the neck muscles. When the neck muscles are tight they can press into the nerves for your eyes to make pain on the back of your eyes where the nerves is attached. More pressure causes the pupils to dilate to make you sensitive to light. The neck muscles pass right by the ears on the way to the top and when the muscles are tight they can press into the nerves for your ears to cause the problems with sound. Tight neck muscles are associated with a nausea feeling as well. To get rid of the pains you have to free up your neck muscles and to be sure, you should do the back muscles as well and here's how to free them up:
Neck
Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your neck. Squeeze your thumb and fingers together and hold. Relax your body. When your fingers and thumb touch, about two minutes, slowly lower your head as far as you can, release the pressure but hold your neck lowered for another 30 seconds.
With your neck in the lowered position, replace your thumbs in under the ears and your fingers behind your head but right next to your skull this time. Press your fingers and thumbs together again and hold. Relax your body while waiting. When the muscles have all released, slowly lift your head until it’s level again, release the pressure but hold your head like that for another 30 seconds.
Back:
(do from a sitting position)
Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder, fingers over the back and the palm in the front and firmly pull down on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. Then reverse your hand positions and do your right side. For both- for best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.
