Tips

Remember to maintain good posture throughout the day. If you catch yourself slouching or notice your posture slipping, take a moment to reset by performing 5 chin tucks. This simple exercise can help realign your head and neck, reinforcing good posture habits.

If your headaches feel more like migraines (throbbing, one-sided, with nausea or light sensitivity) rather than a band of muscular tension, see TMJ & Migraine Relief instead.
