The most common reason for headaches is tension in scalp muscles. What do people with headaches usually do? - Take medication, drink water, rest (if possible). Paracetamol, or stronger drugs, do not always help. In contrast, manual scalp therapy has been known for generations. It provides an effective solution for headaches. After a local scalp massage, further investigation of the causes of the pain followed by their treatment should be performed.

Another reason for headaches could be TMJ tension, as well as masseter muscle or facial muscles. There is no other area in the body that would be more influenced by the mind. The right treatment of the facial and mouth muscle problems does not only relief the pain, but also helps to resolve some mental issues that underlie the problem.  These pains also include the same musculoskeletal problems that are characteristic of all muscles and joints in the body.

Headaches can be caused by the neck and even back and shoulder problems. Possible causes are accidents, bruises, but also overload over a period of time. Office work can burden your spine no less than hard physical work. It is important to treat headaches urgently so that the pain does not become chronic. Chronic headaches are more difficult to treat, since they are rooted in the central nervous system and musculoskeletal system.

It is important to identify from the tests whether the source of pain is located in the same area that hurts, or is projected from another part of the body. Headaches may be caused by a number of processes in the human body. First of all, dangerous cases must be ruled out. Concern about medical emergencies is shared by all of us, and rightly so. Too bad that sometimes this concern prevents the person suffering from headaches to undergo examination and seek treatment. Unequivocal testing and diagnosis bring some relief.  The findings of many scientific studies indicate that proper diagnosis of the cause of headaches in itself can reduce the intensity of pain by 90%.
