MIGRAINE COLD TREATMENT

Cold CoreStones and towels are used as a preventative treatment for migraines. Tailored to stop a migraine in its tracks before it becomes out of control.

The goal is to address the vascular part of your migraines. The cold help to reduce the excess blood flow to the brain which reduces the pounding sensation you may experience during an attack. They also help decrease pain and blood vessel inflammation or swelling.

  • While specific spots can vary based on individual pain points, common areas include the temples, back of the neck, base of the skull, and between the eyebrows. A trained therapist can guide you on self-massage techniques for these areas.

  • Frequency can depend on the individual and the severity of your migraines; some might benefit from weekly sessions, while others might find monthly massages sufficient. It's essential to consult with a massage therapist to tailor a schedule that suits your needs.

  • While results can vary, many individuals find immediate relief or a reduction in intensity after a focused neck massage, especially if their migraines are tied to muscle tension in that area.

  • Yes. Athletic massage is proven to reduce recovery time, sometimes dramatically, by shortening the time it takes for injuries to heal, and makes the after effects “better”.

    Athletic Massage reduces the swelling and edema associated with soft tissue injuries. After a serious injury, it can also help form strong pliable scar tissue instead of the usual random stiff scar tissue, so that range of motion and tissue extensibility are maintained.

  • Anyone who plays sports or exercises a lot should receive a regular massage to improve their performance and prevent injuries.

  • This type of massage can be beneficial for your body in different ways at different times. For example:

    Before a sports event involves a technique to compress the muscles, warming them up to reduce tension and improve performance.

    After a sports event focuses on kneading the muscles to quickly reduce any soreness or muscle fatigue. This way you can recover quicker to be at your best and ready for the next game.

    At any other time uses more deep tissue techniques to help reduce muscle tightness/tension, assist recovery and prevent injury.

  • Having a specific massage before and/or after playing is one of the best ways to get the most benefit from your body, especially if you train frequently.

    If you’re feeling “tight”, have a “kink”, and/or you have a history of injuries, get one ASAP.

    If you end up injuring yourself, you’ll be watching from the sideline instead of playing and wished you had got one.

    For older athletes, or those in high-level competition, you should be getting one at least once a month to maximize your performance and keep away career-ending injuries.

  • Consider bringing athletic shorts and a top to allow for stretching and mobility exercises.
