Is a Head massage good for the brain?
A good head massage can help you to release tension and de-stress mentally by increasing blood flow to the scalp. The mind and body are well connected, and every seed of thought that leads to action starts within our heads. Believe it or not, we spend more time fighting and arguing about opinions, wishes, and desires inside our heads than anywhere else. The attention span reading this description is bound to be shorter, as you might be thinking about your past, present, and future.
Keep that thought aside. We have an excellent solution for your peace of mind. Massaggi Head Massage is a carefully crafted head massage technique that clears your mind with the bonus of sensational massage. These techniques are one-of-a-kind massages done in London, ready to take your headaches with a sensory touch from our massage therapist, Ben Pianese.
The human brain’s unprecedented, incomparable, elusive power is generated by coordinated actions and interactions of tiny electrical cells known as neurons. These specialized cells transmit information through electrochemical impulses, behaving like a sophisticated internet super highway. Neuronal signals convey information that results in everything from bodily sensations of thirst or hunger to the shape and meaning of words on this page.
Bioelectrical impulses travel along neuron fibres called axons, which bridge regions of the central nervous system, the brain, and the spinal cord. Outside the central nervous system, axons are bound together into the nerves that make up the peripheral nervous system, relaying messages between the central nervous system and every organ and muscle in the body.
Does a Head massage help with migraine headaches?
Pain relief: Head massage for migraines. These therapies bring clarity when your mind is clouded, giving you a calming effect and neutralizing any strain around your neck area. A happy mind is home to better performance of bodily functions.
Almost everyone experiences headaches at times. Most are caused by tension in the scalp and neck muscles after periods of concentration or stress. Some result from eating problems or alcohol abuse. Others are forerunners of colds or influenza, and menstruation can be another cause.
Eyestrain only to rarely produces headache, despite popular belief, and if does, it usually arises from astigmatism, migraine can cause severe headache, often on one side of the head only, and sometimes associated with numbness or weakeness down side of the faceor body. Headache is common after head injury (concussion), and it can also be caused by sinus problems or problems involving the lower jaw muscles that may result from the teeth-grinding.
A sudden, severe headache, like a blow to the back of the head, often followed by unconsciousness, may indicate internal bleeding underneath the brain, known as subarachnoid haemorrhage. Meningitis produces headaches aggravated by bright light and accompanied by fever and neck stiffness. Remember that it helps in common headaches, but if you’re experiencing repeated headaches, it is advisable to consult a medical practitioner and not take a similar massage as a substitute for medical advice or treatment.
What does the therapist recommend?
Acupuncture
Headaches are believed to be caused by an energy blockage in the yang channel of the head. Those who do not respond well to conventional medicine are thought to respond best to acupuncture. Depending on the type of headache, points on the meridians relating to the gall bladder, large intestine, stomach, small intestine governor, and bladder are treated.
Osteopathy
Many headaches are believed to be caused by muscle tension, which can result from poor posture, eyestrain, and the pressures of everyday living. Therefore, osteopaths may try to free the constructed muscles at the skull’s base and improve the neck joints’ mobility.
An orthodox view
The doctor’s primary role is to diagnose and treat serious causes of headaches. Orthodox painkillers such as paracetamol and aspirin have limited value in treating tension headaches.
How do you give a good head massage?
Certain kinds of headaches – particularly those which tend to start at the back of the head – may helped by firm effluerage strokes down the back of the neck and gentle petrissage and kneading of the muscles over the upper part of the shoulders—followed by deep friction with the thumbs over the right muscle band on either side of the spine of the neck and friction with the fingers behind the ears. Then apply firm stroking across the forehead, from one temple to the other, using the fingers’ ends. Finish with more firm stroking down the neck towards the shoulders, avoiding altogether any contact with the front of the neck and throat.
Head Massage Therapy by Massaggi – ‘peace of mind’
It is very tricky to understand the complexity of the process; hence, we believe every massage therapist should have a sound knowledge of the anatomy of the human body. Neurons are joined by a supporting cast of cells that help signal transmissions and protect the brain from certain blood-borne substances. Thus, aided neurons transform electrochemical signals into actions like throwing a ball, laughing, thinking about getting a massage, and even falling in love; in short, into everything that makes us human.
