New mom headaches can feel random… but for a lot of moms, they’re not. 💛

Between feeding, rocking, carrying, stroller walks, and looking down all day, your body spends hours in a forward position — and that extra load can build tension in the neck + upper back (a common driver for headaches and migraines).

That’s why these two “daily reset” moves matter — and you can do them with your baby right there:
✅ Banded rows — 2 sets of 10–15
✅ Foam roller stretch — 5–10 minutes

You don’t need perfect posture. Just a small reset that helps your neck stop doing all the work.

Save this for the next day your shoulders feel up in your ears. 💙

If you’ve been told you have “migraines,” that label can be helpful — but it doesn’t always explain why it’s happening. 🧠💭

In headache medicine, diagnoses often fall into two buckets:
✅ Primary headaches = diagnosed by symptoms, without a clear underlying cause
✅ Secondary headaches = symptoms caused by something identifiable (a driver)

This matters because if there’s a driver, the goal isn’t just managing symptoms — it’s understanding what’s creating the pain signals.

One commonly overlooked driver is how the neck, jaw, and shoulders are functioning. When those systems are irritated or not moving well, they can refer pain upward and mimic migraine symptoms.

If you’ve ever felt like your diagnosis explains what it feels like… but not why it’s happening — you’re not alone. And it’s worth getting curious about what might be underneath. 💡

Most people think neck tension is only a “neck problem”… but the shoulders play a huge role. 🧠🦴

When your shoulder blades don’t move well or your upper traps take over, your neck works overtime — and that’s when tension and headaches can build.

That’s why I love these two simple moves:
➡️ Shoulder blade retraction (pull)
➡️ Shoulder blade protraction (push)

Focus on:
• isolating the shoulder blade
• straight elbow
• no shrugging
• down + back engagement

Small changes in how you move can make a big difference over time. 💡

New Year’s Eve migraines usually aren’t caused by one thing — they’re caused by stacking triggers. Your goal isn’t perfection… it’s keeping your system from getting overloaded.

Here’s a quick NYE game plan:
💧 1 water per drink
Dehydration lowers your threshold fast. Keep a water glass next to your drink and alternate.

🍽️ Eat before you drink
Alcohol hits harder (and triggers more) on an empty stomach. Aim for protein + carbs.

😎 Protect your eyes
Bright lights + glare can push sensitive systems over the edge. Sunglasses indoors = totally allowed.

🔊 Lower the noise load
Earplugs or stepping into a quiet room for 60 seconds can calm the nervous system.

🌙 Take “quiet breaks”
Even 1–2 minutes outside or in a dim hallway can help reset.

😴 Don’t wreck tomorrow
If you’re prone to headaches, staying up late + alcohol + dehydration is a perfect storm. Try to keep your sleep as close to normal as possible.

✅ Save this for NYE — and cheers to fewer migraines.

If your head hurts, it doesn’t always mean the problem is “in your head.” 🧠💭

The upper neck (C1–C3) is often one of the first places to evaluate because it’s a key area known for referring pain into the head. 🦴⬆️

This is often a movement issue — when the upper neck isn’t moving well, symptoms can build… and when movement is restored, things can calm down. 🔄✅

And for long-term results, the shoulders matter more than most people realize: your head weighs 10–12 pounds (like a bowling ball) 🎳 — and if the shoulders can’t support daily demands, the neck can get pulled back into tension again. 💪🧍‍♀️

If you’ve been told “everything looks normal,” this might be the missing piece that changes how you think about your headaches. 💡

12/26/2025

✅ Meds can reduce pain signals
…but they don’t always explain why migraines keep happening.

👉The turning point is asking:
Where is the signal coming from?

Many people need an evaluation that looks beyond symptoms — especially at the neck, jaw, and shoulders —

because those structures can feed headache pathways even when imaging looks “normal.”

If you’ve felt stuck in the loop, you’re not alone. 💛

PTs hear Jingle Bell Rock and immediately think “neck mobility.” 🎄🕺🦴

PS: It’s always the quiet one with the best moves… 👀
