Not every severe headache is a migraine.

Tension Headache
✓ Tight band around the head
✓ Neck stiffness
✓ Muscle tightness
✓ Usually mild to moderate

Migraine
✓ Throbbing pain
✓ Often one side
✓ Nausea
✓ Light and sound sensitivity

Different headaches require different treatment strategies. Understanding which type you experience is the first step toward effective relief.

Many people believe headaches are simply something they have to live with.

They're not! Recurring headaches often have underlying causes including:

• Neck muscle tension
• TMJ dysfunction
• Stress
• Poor posture
• Muscle trigger points

At Westwinds Massage & Wellness, we work to identify the source—not simply mask the symptoms. If headaches are affecting your work, family time, or sleep, it may be time to investigate the cause.

Neck tension is frequently a cause or contributor to headaches. Getting the neck muscles released in a good massage can help provide relief to headaches.

Do you ever wake up with jaw soreness or headaches?

Jaw tension can contribute to:
* Temple pain
* Facial pain
* Ear discomfort
* Morning headaches

Many people grind or clench their teeth without realizing it.

Massage and acupuncture may help reduce tension in the jaw and surrounding muscles. Ask us how we can help if you suffer from jaw soreness or headaches.

After all that, your stomach might be rebelling a little. You can calm things down with ginger tea. Slice some fresh ginger into a cup with tangerine peel, pour just-boiled water over it and let it steep for 5-10 minutes. Sip slowly.
