How Relaxation Therapies Help with Migraine & Chronic Headaches

Many people experience headaches that do not come from physical issues alone but from stress, poor posture, digital strain, and emotional tension.

Relaxation therapies at Wellaura Wellness offer relief by calming both the body and mind.

How relaxation helps headaches:

✔ Reduces stress hormones
Calming therapies lower cortisol, a major trigger of migraines.

✔ Improves blood circulation
Neck, shoulder, and scalp relaxation improves oxygen flow to the brain.

✔ Releases muscle stiffness
Massage, pranayama, and steam therapy reduce tightness that leads to tension headaches.

✔ Supports better sleep
Many headaches stem from sleep disturbances.

✔ Balances emotional health
Counselling and mindfulness ease anxiety, which often worsens headaches.

Relaxation therapies don’t just treat pain — they address the underlying lifestyle and emotional triggers.
