Relieve migraines with this simple self-massage

Migraines are a specific type of headache that require a specific treatment approach. It is unlikely, for example, that migraines will respond positively to massage techniques used for tension-type headaches. Try this short self-massage routine to help alleviate migraines before they start.

This helped provide relief, not totally cure the migraine but I feel quite a bit better. I already had worked out some massage techniques similar to some of them, but some are new to me and it's great to add them to my tool box!

    Jaden Ward ...hi Jaden, I have suffered with migraines for the past 30 years. Just had one today and has lasted all day. I also get vision problems which typically last about 45 minutes to an hour. There are several medicines that a doctor can recommend so I suggest you talk to your medical provider and see what he suggests for you. Please try not to worry but I know sometimes that is difficult to do. Hope you feel better soon and that your doctor can help with this problem. Good luck to you🙏

    Wow! That last one did wonders for me. Felt the tension and pain reduce. The terrible pain behind my eye reduced so much that i wanted to reach into my screen to hug you😀 Thank you!!!

    Woah this actually really helps! It came back not long after stopping, but during it and a bit afterwards it was gone
