More than just headaches, migraines can be a full-body experience, accompanied by nausea, visual disturbances, and sensitivity to light and sound. If you suffer from migraines, you know how they can disrupt your entire day, leaving you feeling helpless. Fortunately, there’s a natural, therapeutic solution that could make a difference: massage therapy.
Why Migraines Happen and How Massage Therapy Helps
Migraines are often triggered or worsened by muscle tension, especially around the neck, shoulders, and upper back. When these muscles are tense, they put pressure on blood vessels and nerves, creating the perfect storm for a migraine. Our massage therapists use gentle, targeted techniques to reduce tension in these key areas, helping to prevent migraines from starting or reducing their intensity when they do.
But there’s more: massage therapy also boosts blood flow to the head and neck. Improved circulation can help minimise the pain and pressure that come with migraines, while promoting relaxation. Regular massage therapy sessions can gradually reduce the frequency and severity of migraines by tackling one of their main triggers—muscle tension.
The Added Benefits of Massage for Migraine Sufferers
Massage therapy not only addresses the physical sources of migraine pain but also has a calming effect on the nervous system. During a massage, your body releases serotonin and dopamine while lowering cortisol—the stress hormone. These positive shifts help you feel calmer and more at ease, which can reduce the chances of a migraine being triggered by stress.
