Massage and Migraines? What a relief!

I've no doubt this has been a discussion topic and I hope you all don't mind me asking...how is it that a talented massage therapist can literally make my migraine disappear with his or her magic hands?    I recently learned I have some residual nerve damage in my neck from an old body surfing accident.  (Sandbar 1, Sage O) ... Read moreChevron

Estrogen... Grrr....

I have had migraines since I was 11.  Many years of monthly migraines that landed on my cycle.  Finally, at age 39 convinced my OB to take my ovarys out!!!  That was done September 2008.  I had 4 months of freedom and in January they started again.  Blood work and an ultrasound showed that I have grown another ovary. ... Read moreChevron
