      ​@claire6074 Anxiety sufferer here and I'm right there with you. All the scary symptoms and intrusive thoughts are just keeping us in that fear loop. What I do is remind myself that I've felt whatever symptom I'm having right now before and it passed, then the body came up with some other BS symptom and it passed too. The hard part is not letting stuff continually scare us and just keep doing life anyway. Check out the disordered podcast if you are looking for help with any anxiety based stuff.

      I store stress in my traps and neck, and those muscles are ALWAYS tender, sore and tight, and has caused me discomfort and headaches frequently for the last 5-10 years. That can quickly become 20 years.

    I was skeptical about doing this because I didn’t think a few stretches could receive my massive headache. But after completing the first exercise I started to feel a huge relief!! By the end of it my headache was gone!! Thank you!!!!

    I could almost cry this helped so much. I got a pretty bad concussion about a year ago that jarred my neck pretty bad, and as I havent been able to go to a chiropractor yet I get pretty bad tension headaches a lot. I finally decided to look up something in aid of tylenol and this actually helped. Thank you!

    Hello Doctor, I want to thank you so much. I was having painful headache in my left side of head for one week and I was not aware of the reason at all and finally decided to visit the hospital but then someone in family told me that may be my nerve or something is twisted due to pillow and then I searched more and more and finally reached to this video and after doing these exercises in one day, my pain vanished. THANK YOU ❤️

    Thank you! Really helpful. I've done many of these stretches before on my own, but your video helps emphasise that it isn't a quick 20 second fix.
    If I feel it more during some stretches, should that give me a clue as to which muscles are overworked?

      I used to get frequent migraines. I had bought a DVD called Yoga Zone for Healthy Back/Neck, I did it faithfully twice a day, it has 2-20 minute sessions. The headaches stopped completely for 3 years. You do have to do it every day to work. You feel amazing when done, like a full body massage! I've bought the dvd for friends/family. If you can't do some of the movements at first that's OK just do what you can, eventually it gets easier, takes a few weeks to get into the fullness of it.

After I ate, my headache was still there which meant it was from my stressful day. I was actually crying it was so painful. After, researching SEVERAL remedies I stumbled across this video. I did these simple stretching exercises & voila, 20 min later my headache is gone. Thank you SO MUCH Dr Jo! 😅🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😅
