If you experience pain or pressure in your forehead or on the top or sides of your head, it’s likely related to tension or stress. Right now, there are plenty of things to stress you out! Sitting too long at your computer or desk, extra care for keeping kids healthy and engaged (especially when you’re the teacher, too!), and daily tasks that are simply more burdensome – and a whole lot of “life stuff” that is just piling up.Massage can help get rid of that headache and regular massage may well keep it from coming back. I’m happy to talk with you more about how to address your headaches or any other symptoms you have.
