Topic Of The Month \u2013 Tension Headaches<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"headache\"<\/a>Lately a lot of people have been coming to my office complaining of headaches that have plagued them for a long time\u2026in one case for years!<\/p>\n

This woman had been everywhere and had every test that the medical world could offer.\u00a0 Nothing showed why <\/em>she had these terrible headaches.\u00a0 At one point she told me the pain was a 10 on a scale of 1-10.\u00a0 Imagine how terrible it was for her to suffer every day from such a crippling condition.\u00a0 My heart went out to her!<\/p>\n

Fortunately, her problem was caused by muscles, the one thing that most of the medical world doesn\u2019t <\/em>consider when looking for a solution to pain.<\/p>\n

In fact, if you watched my TED talk: The Pain Question No One is Asking, <\/em>you may have already heard me talk about this missing link. (If you haven\u2019t heard my TED talk, go to YouTube and enter: Julie Donnelly, Pain and I\u2019ll pop up.)<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s talk about muscles and why they will cause headaches (and a whole lot more!).<\/p>\n

Which Muscles Cause Tension Headaches?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

While there are many causes for headaches, such as stress, anxiety, depression, head injury, or anxiety, and life-threatening causes we won\u2019t go into here, one type of headache that is caused by muscular tension is known as a muscle contraction tension headache.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>As shown in the graphics above, muscle spasms (colored circles) will refer pain to your head, even when you don\u2019t feel any discomfort where the spasm is actually occurring.<\/p>\n

(In this article I will focus on treatments for pain caused by the\u00a0levator scapulae and trapezius muscles).<\/p>\n

Muscles in the neck and scalp can become tense or contract in response to stress, depression, or anxiety, leading to tension headaches.\u00a0 Fortunately, in many cases, simply pressing on the trigger points (the colored circles) will release the tension being felt in your head.<\/p>\n

To prevent tension headaches, it is important to maintain good posture, practice relaxation techniques, and use a pillow that keeps your head, neck, and spine in a horizontal plane while you sleep.<\/p>\n

Relief From Tension Headache Pain
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

There are too many treatments for headaches to include all of them in this newsletter.\u00a0 If you want to know them, I suggest you get one of my books, especially Treat Yourself to Pain-Free Living<\/span><\/a><\/em> or The Pain-Free Athlete<\/a><\/span><\/em>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, I want to share an important Julstro self-treatment that you may find works well for tension headaches:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Place a ball such as the Perfect Ball (shown in picture) or a tennis ball, on the top of your shoulder.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lean into the corner of a wall, as shown.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"headache<\/a><\/p>\n

Keep your head close to the wall to prevent the ball from slipping and landing on the floor.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bend at your hips so your upper body goes up and down, causing the ball to roll along the top of your shoulder. This will treat both the levator scapulae and trapezius muscles \u2013 both are key muscles for tension headaches.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Be gentle with this treatment as it will cause pain to be felt in your head as you are doing the treatment.\u00a0 Only use enough pressure that it \u201churts so good.\u201d<\/p>\n

Do 5-6 passes on each side.\u00a0 It can be repeated often during the day but give a little time between each session to allow the muscle to relax.<\/p>\n

Drink a LOT of water so the acid that you\u2019re pressing out of the muscle will get flushed out of your body.<\/p>\n

This may look a bit confusing, but it\u2019s simple when you follow the directions.\u00a0 And the best part is, IT WORKS!<\/p>\n

How to Learn the Other Treatments for Headaches<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

If you go to www.FlexibleAthlete.com<\/span><\/a> you can read a lot more about muscles and pain.\u00a0 You will also find my books and other self-treatment tools by pressing on Shop<\/strong><\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Wishing you well,<\/p>\n

My posts and \u201cHealth Tips From the Professor\u201d articles carefully avoid claims about any brand of supplement or manufacturer of supplements. However, I am often asked by representatives of supplement companies if they can share them with their customers.<\/p>\n

My answer is, \u201cYes, as long as you share only the article without any additions or alterations. In particular, you should avoid adding any mention of your company or your company\u2019s products. If you were to do that, you could be making what the FTC and FDA consider a \u201cmisleading health claim\u201d that could result in legal action against you and the company you represent.<\/p>\n
