So that's why going to the toilet sometimes helps my migraine. It's because of my natural posture when sitting on the pot. 😅

I’ve had migraines for as long as I can remember. I’ve been diagnosed with migraines, tension headaches, cluster headaches, sinus headaches, everything you can imagine. I wish someone would have showed me these sooner! Nothing is worse than a migraine and these stretches help so much!

This is the first time I’ve heard migraines explained! and what muscles are involved. Although I had an idea, with the eye pain, the muscles in the back of the head, neck, etc. i’ve always wondered why I feel like I had tooth aches, jaw pain when I get a migraine lately getting them around every 6 to 10 days lasting at least 3 days. My doctor said no idea why , but hers a prescription. Your excercises helped me in less than 15 mins ! Thank you so very much.

I have been doing this splenius muscle stretch every day for a month now. I had a chronic point of pain on the back of my head which disappeared after a few days of doing the stretch and never came back. I'm having a hormonal migraine now and usually the pain is moderate, but now it's one of the most mildest migraine I've ever had. Today I was watching the morning news, they talked about tension headaches and migraines originating from the splenius muscle. I thought about Dr. Rowe, what a wonderful human being he is to share his knowledge with us.

I wrote a comment three hours ago. I had a splitting headache in the exact muscles you are demonstrating. Three hours ahead and my headache is completely gone. I did the exercises with you. I'm in Oregon. Can't thank you enough!!!!!

I had cluster migrains for five years... They were hormonal... Left me disabled on many occasion. My daughter now suffers... I had to resort to having a full hysterectomy. My then Dr was horrid. He had me on antidepressants and epilepsy drugs for five years. Refusing to let me see my gynecologist to discuss it. It wouldn't happen today. I've learned to research holistic remedies. Also to speak up. May anyone that suffers migrains, truly find a release from the torture... Peaceful Blessings ✨💛✨🕊️🙌🏻🙏🏻🤗

Yeah, NONE of that was the correct treatment! Everything in your body happens because a hormone 'told it' to happen, as Hormones are the 'top dogs' in the body, generally in charge of everything. He should have balanced your hormones instead of cutting on you, but he can make a lot more money by cutting-- and I'm sure he hasn't got the slightest idea how to balance your hormones.

I am a RN who struggles with migraines as well as Fibromyalgia. These exercises, as well as those on your other videos, are helpful overall for muscle and nerve pain. Thank you.

When I was in the navy, it seemed MDs (well, officers in general) tended to look down on we junior enlisted. Wartime medicine, I spoze. I was stricken by a migraine attack once (1970s) when I went to medical (I had never had a migraine before) and the MD who saw me actually took the time to explain to me what was happening. I find it amazing that much of what she told me about what we knew about migraines back then .... is repeated here. Thank you very much!!

This a really good tutorial. My partner used to get migraines for 3-4 days weekly plus recovery. These headaches really made him miserable with pain, nausea and no sleep. He cannot take nsaids as he is on blood thinners so it's mostly white knuckles for a day or 3. He got off gluten which has allowed him to go months without a migraine. Now when he gets one he uses magnesium in some form or other right away to relax muscles. I could see myself giving him massage to help with the pain. This is the kind of tutorial that makes me very glad I subscribe to this channel.

Bless your heart! Of course your mental health is affected 😮 If you don't have access to healthcare, please ask for help. Because no one should suffer like that! After suffering with migraines most of my life, and well-intentioned doctors who tried to offer relief, I finally got proactive on discovering my TRIGGERS and a referral to a neurologist who gave me a preventative medication while I adjusted my life-style. I also found counseling very helpful for addressing the anxiety and depression that are a perfectly NORMAL response to chronic intense pain. I hope you find relief SOON! ❤

I've had cluster headaches (sharp acute pain behind and above left eye) for years before they were discussed on the internet. They went away for some years since 2015 and have recently returned. As an engineer, I'm very observant. This time around, I'm seeing relationship between stress, occipital nerves and muscles, sinuses, and possible jaw shifts back into place, due to ortho braces I had installed. This time I will look forward to trying strength training on my neck and shoulders, since bilateral pain often uncovers weakness in opposite muscles.

See for the first time: also a migrain person for almost 50 years: I wil gone start the exercises. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from the Netherlands🙏🏼

I found some muscles I didnt know I had, and now the stinging pain behind my eyes has lessened. Thanks!

Dude.. you have saved me tons of doctor visits already. 🙌🏼 Including when I had hurt my back and could hardly move.

💢My first migraine. A headache that I went to sleep with turned into a full blown migraine right when I woke up- puking and all the other negative symptoms. Didn’t know if I had a stomach bug but the headache made me think migraine. I have a new baby and have been pushing my body way too hard without giving it any tlc. These stretches took a 9/10 headache to a 3/10 (with a little help from a thc rub & a few puffs of cbd + thc pen) The pain is still there and dull but now I feel like I have a course of action.

Hi, I don't comment often but I just wanted to thank you for this video. I've had migraines for as long as I remember (I'm 27), sometimes several days in a row. Never knew what caused them but I thought it was related to my left eye since it always came from there. I tried paracetamol, tried to relax in the dark with migraine relief music, tried to stay in a silent room and nothing really worked. I tried your exercises one night and IT WORKED! I do the first exercise everytime I sense a migraine is coming and it really works, I can feel how the muscle is tense and painful when I massage it and how I get better afterwards. Thanks again for this, it's going to change my life !

If I gently massage those muscles at the back of my skull, I get nauseous, and the only relief is vomiting. which, in turn, makes the pounding headache worse. Vomiting does relieve the nauseous felling, but no relief from the headaches.

A few years ago, I injured my back, the entire longissimus muscle. Touching it felt like a round cable, (inflamed, swollen and very painful), instead of laying flater. The L. capitis was the worst, I would get nauseous. In addition to this accident, I have degenerative cervical disk issues, level 3. I learned from your videos how to eventually fix it all, to a point. But, I feel almost as good as 35yrs ago. 😁

You have nailed it doc. Have covered every way of pains. Will definitely try.

I'm so happy that you are on KZread. I live in Minnesota and it is hard to find a physical therapist like you. I have not heard or seen anyone like you. I don't like going to physical therapy when it is recommended by a doctor because I have always had the worst experience with them, they don't know what they are doing. This is one of the reasons why I want to move out of Minnesota and get somewhere where I am getting the help and support that I need, concerning my body health. Once again thank you so much. I really appreciate you. I will recommend you to everyone that is experiencing any kind of discomfort or pain in their body. God bless and your family 💜💜

I’ve suffered from clusters, migraines etc for most of my 70 years. I started taking Vitamin D3 10,000 IU per day in 2015 and they have stopped ever since. It’s now become the gold standard for cluster headache treatment.

This was golden info! Sounds so simple yet so effective. Been dealing with migraines since 2007. Thank you for this.

Timing is everything! I have been having neck pain and headaches for several weeks. Can’t wait to try these stretches.

I saw a physical therapist for my jaw. I have TMJ, trigeminal neuralgia, and migraines. These exercise provided me with a feeling similar to the massages and stretches I had at physical therapy! My neck and head feel so good. I’m glad I ran across this video. I’ve subscribed! Thank you!

I was looking up videos to try to help my relief. And I can’t wait to try these when I am home from work tonight after reading all these comments. Here is my story: I always thought that I knew what a migraine was I have had headaches off and on a lot the past few years. I now know that the headaches I was experiencing were nowhere near a migraine. I started getting pretty bad headaches at the beginning of November. Also, around the same time bye was having toothache problems. After looking around at some stuff online, I found out that having to have a root canal can also cause a migraine or a headache. I haven’t been to the dentist in a long time. Not really for any specific reason, it had just been a long period of time since I went. To make a long story short, I got my root canal done and felt OK for a couple of days. And then the headaches came back and they’ve gotten worse and have been horrible ever cents. I couldn’t enjoy Thanksgiving, my boyfriend and I’s anniversary, or Christmas. This is the first migraine I’ve ever experienced, and it hasn’t stopped cents. I’ve been to many different doctors, and they all tried to give me different things to help. No one can find the source of the migraine. Around this time in November, I did have a job transition and a lot of changes so some doctors related this to stress. But I never knew stress could cause this much pain. And after going to see a ear nose and throat doctor, she let me know that she thinks that I have what is called a vestibular migraine. no fluid in the ears which is good but I do get on and off dizziness and I am sensitive to smells bright lights, etc. I got the paperwork on a vestibular migraine and I feel like my whole world changed. I had to take into account, food triggers, And other things that I never thought about. I’m not sure that it is food related because again I’ve never had this problem but at this point I would try anything. So I have been on an elimination diet and eating foods that are only good for migraines, and nothing that can potentially trigger it and that hasn’t helped yet. I was told to try vitamin B2 and B12 which I take daily. I have also seen that magnesium helps so I take that at night two hours after I take nortriptyline. I was hesitant to try nortriptyline because of all the symptoms that I’ve heard. For a while, it definitely did help, but I am on two months of taking it 10 mg and I feel like it stopped working. My doctor did suggest upping the dosage to 20 mg, as your body can get used to it, and that affects the success of the medication. But again I’m hesitant to upped the dosage because of the potential symptoms. I guess it’s just frustrating because I have never had a migraine before, I am 27 years old. I am relatively healthy and have never had any other health problems. I even was so scared about this happening that I got blood work done and a MRI to make sure everything was fine. My bloodwork showed borderline cholesterol problems and low iron but for the most part everything came back normal. Same for the MRI, everything came back normal. so on paper nothing is wrong medically in those regards. So bottom line is I’m just trying to figure out the root cause of the problem. My insurance doesn’t specifically have chiropractors but I have heard that they work wonders so I would love to try to find one to see if it could work for me. my insurance also doesn’t allow me to see a neurologist until you have tried three different medication’s for at least 2 to 3 months each. But for me, I would like to not just keep taking medication’s and just find the root of the problem. Each day is just so disheartening and hard and I just want relief. Any advice or words would be great. Cannot wait to try these exercises when I get home tonight. Also side note: I have bought everything suggested that I have found on TikTok to help with migraines. So as I stated before I have tried B2, B12, magnesium, ginger root, those head caps that you put in the freezer, a eye mask massager, I’ve tried at all.

Something possessed me to read your story! The part about “3 meds for 2 or 3 months each before approval of a neurologist” should be classified as malpractice. I’ll tell you up front that I have a strange form of migraine without pain but these migraines are still incapacitating for about 48 hours. I don’t go to doctors, so little by little I’m learning what to do about the migraines. I head straight for bed with heat packs on my feet and a cold pack on my neck, and then move the cold pack to wherever it feels good. Keeping hydrated with electrolyte water is very important (bottled mineral water has electrolytes). Also watch for triggers like stress, and low blood sugar (which happens if you skip meals). I hear birth control pills can cause migraines. Nerves love B vitamins. A wonderful source of well balanced B vitamins is Nutritional Yeast (flakes are better than powder) and you can mix it with food. When I do it right I take Nutritional Yeast every day of the month. I see you already take magnesium. I take Alka-Seltzer Gold right away at the start of a migraine, and every two hours and drink extra water with it. Alka-Seltzer gold is nothing more than a fancy form of baking soda but the body loves it (another research topic!). Take salt (NOT potassium. See Dr. Berg video "use more salt to fix migraines"). You can do more research on any of this. Search KZread for “Dr. Eric Berg migraine”. Look up how to do acupressure at the base of your thumb or other acupressure advice. I’m disappointed that I still get them so often but at least I have my “rules” and all these make getting through the migraine easier. Here’s something I just dug up from my memory banks!! My friend had great success with cayenne (which I will have to try too!). The internet says “Cayenne pepper is actually very good for helping to rid migraines. It contains the natural healing compound, capsaicin.” You can research this too and you will see it comes in pill and liquid form and cream and gel. Keep searching! 🙏

Thank you so much and God bless you always ❤

This has been affecting my quality of life and mental health. I’m definitely going to try these and will update how it works for me later 👍🏽
