Migraine headaches are one of the most common ailments effecting people today. They are also one of the most misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated.
We have seen clients who have tried everything to help them with their migraine symptoms including medications, surgery, injections, neurological therapies, hormone treatments, experimental drugs and many more, sometimes very invasive, procedures which provide temporary relief if any.
Migraine headache symptoms range from a slight throbbing in the head, to extreme pain, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, light and noise sensitivity, excessive pressure in the head, inability to talk, think, or perform simple activities, and so on... They are difficult to understand and evaluate for someone who has never experienced them, which could explain the lack of knowledge and treatments available. Migraines are sometimes called cluster headaches, tension headaches, sinus or pressure headaches, ocular migraines, hormonal or premenstrual headaches, and neurological headaches depending on which symptoms are more pronounced. However to us, these all constitute a migraine headache, and can be treated with this type of massage.
Shauna Moody, having suffered from migraines for many years, has been specializing in the treatment of migraine headaches for the past 12 years through deep tissue massage. She discovered this technique from a massage therapist she was seeing at the time, and noticed her headaches becoming less and less frequent and eventually ceasing all together. She has since been dedicated to helping people who suffer from these headaches using the same therapeutic massage that she received, and drawing the same results that she experienced.
The massage treatment for migraine headaches consists of mostly very deep work in the neck, along with relaxation and preventative techniques. Results vary from person to person as some people have reported not having any migraines after their first session, and some notice a gradual drop in frequency, duration and intensity. Every person Shauna has treated for migraine headaches, regardless of their history and prior treatments, has found relief from this therapy. We feel very confident in this treatment as we have seen life changing results. Our clients have been able to avoid invasive surgeries and stop taking their medications.
Please contact Shauna anytime to discuss any questions you have about migraine therapy or to schedule an appointment.
