| Myofascial Release is a hands on treatment that focuses in on the connective tissues that surround the muscles, blood vessels, ligaments, tendons and nerves. Very often with migraines the muscles of the neck and shoulders become tight which decreases circulation and contributes to the migraine headache. By loosening these muscles and fascia you can in turn improve circulation patterns decreasing the severity of the migraine and in turn helping to ward off future headaches. |
