🎯 September is programmed + ready to go!

Just finished assigning this month’s Active Headache Recovery routine to all of our monthly subscribers and I’m pumped about what’s inside.

🧠 This month’s focus: neck and shoulder strength to help reduce headache frequency, tension, and postural overload.

Whether you’re dealing with migraine, tension-type headache, cervicogenic headache, or vestibular migraine, this plan is built to support your nervous system and get you moving, safely.

Each workout is:
✅ Short (10–15 mins)
✅ Equipment-light
✅ Designed to lower head pain without triggering symptoms

Already in the app for our members 👊
Ready when you are.

📲 Message me if you’re interested in joining the program or want to see if it’s a good fit for your head pain.

“Looks like a giant game of Spot It!, right? 👀
It is… but with a twist.

We use this setup to train eye movement, head control, and brain processing speed all at once.

It’s a fun way to work on:
✅ Visual scanning & focus
✅ Eye-head coordination
✅ Balance & posture under challenge
✅ Quick decision-making

Patients match symbols from their card to one on the wall, swapping cards as fast as they can — sometimes against the clock, and sometimes against me.

This isn’t just a game. It’s targeted therapy for people recovering from concussion, neck injuries, dizziness, or certain headache disorders — and yes, it’s actually fun.

Would you win against your PT in this game? 😉

If your neck exercise program looks like this… it’s no wonder you’re not getting better.

Most “neck exercise” handouts floating around the internet (or even from clinics) are:
❌ Not progressive: they don’t actually build strength or endurance over time.
❌ Too generic: not designed for your headache or migraine triggers.
❌ Full of stretches you might not even need and in some cases, they can make symptoms worse.

For people with headache or migraine, exercises should target:
💪 Weakness in the deep neck muscles
🧠 Poor neck control and coordination
⚡ Low muscle endurance

…and be adjusted if you also deal with dizziness, fibromyalgia, or hypermobility.

When done right, an exercise program can:
✅ Decrease headache/migraine frequency
✅ Reduce neck pain and stiffness
✅ Lessen dizziness
✅ Improve your quality of life

If you’ve been trying generic programs and not getting results… it’s not you…it’s the program.

📲 Send me a message “Help” and I can help you build a plan that’s progressive, evidence-based, and designed for your unique needs.

“You should exercise.”
If you’ve been told that before… but no one showed you how to do it without triggering a migraine attack then this is for you.

Maybe you’ve tried.

You went for a walk, tried a workout, or got motivated to start again.

But you got a migraine attack or neck pain came back. Or it got worse. So you stopped. Again.

I work with people who:
✔ Want to be active
✔ Are afraid to trigger an attack
✔ Have “failed” at staying consistent with exercise

Here’s what we do together:
✅ Build a migraine-smart plan based on your goals, not a generic program
✅ Figure out how to pace, recover, and adapt your workouts
✅ Create a routine that fits into your life, instead of controlling it

This is 1-on-1 coaching. Not physical therapy, not generic fitness advice that doesn’t fit your lifestyle.

Just a proven system that helps you move with confidence.

Send me a DM or comment “info” below and I’ll send you the details.

The most underused neuromodulation technique in migraine is also the most powerful. 🧠⚡️

It can decrease the frequency of migraine and headache attacks.
It addresses sources of neck pain that can trigger attacks! 💥
It’s even been shown to help reduce dizziness. 🌪️
And it doesn’t stop there…

It improves pain related to fibromyalgia.
It helps with anxiety and depression symptoms. 😌
It enhances sleep quality! 😴
It can help to prevent dementia! 😕
And it supports better memory, focus, and stress regulation. 🧘‍♀️📝

How?

It creates structural and functional changes in the brain.
It literally rewires your brain, strengthening the neural circuits that support mood, pain control, and cognitive clarity. 🧩🔌

Sounds like something you'd want access to, right?

The crazy part? 🤯

It’s not a pill.
It’s not a device.
It’s not expensive.
In fact... it’s already available to you.

🧠 It’s exercise.

Not “just go move.”
But personalized, brain-friendly, and consistent movement that works with your nervous system. Not against it. 🏃‍♀️

Most people aren’t taught how to do this. Most clinics don’t have the systems to guide it.

That’s what I do.

📩 DM me if you want to use exercise as a real tool in managing migraine, neck pain, and dizziness.

Let’s make your brain & body more resilient. One workout at a time. 💪🧠

Ever wonder which tools actually help with muscle tension and headaches?

Here are a few of my go-to devices for myofascial release, a hands-on approach that helps relieve neck pain, tension, and even headache symptoms when used the right way.

🌀 Foam roller
🎯 Massage ball
🔗 Cervical peanut
🪝 Theracane
🔪 IASTM blade

Each tool serves a purpose, whether it’s loosening the suboccipitals, targeting trigger points, decreasing muscle pain, or improving mobility through the neck and shoulders.

📹 I’ve got a video coming soon where I’ll walk you through how I teach several self-myofascial release techniques in clinic so you can start using these tools at home safely and effectively.

📘 I’ve started working on something new…

An exercise planning workbook for those with migraine who want to be more active — but feel stuck because of fear of attacks, increases in pain, or not knowing where or hot to start.

This workbook is based on the same framework I use with my clients:
✔️ Setting realistic goals
✔️ Knowing how and where to begin
✔️ Progressing without pushing too far
✔️ Navigating setbacks without giving up

I’ve already started building it but I’d love to know:

Is this something you’d use or want to see finished?

Rethinking Exercise for Migraine: Finding the Right Approach

We discuss how everyone with migraine can exercise, and that the problem may be a too narrow definition of what exercise is. We explore how even just 2 minutes of intentional movement per day can be beneficial, and the importance of finding an exercise plan that works with your migraine, not against it.

You are not a failure for struggling to exercise with migraine!

If you keep “falling off,” it’s not because you’re lazy. Real barriers get in the way.

Common barriers I hear every week:
⏰ Not enough time
🤯 Worried exercise will trigger a migraine attack
❓ Not sure what to do or how long to do it
💸 No gym membership or equipment
😣 Tried before and symptoms got worse

You’re not alone in feeling this way. These are common concerns, and they are addressable.

The good news? There is a better way.

By creating clarity around the problem and building a plan that works for you, exercise can become less stressful and more doable.

That means:
✔️ Starting small instead of going all-in
✔️ Choosing movements that fit your life (and your migraine!)
✔️ Building confidence with clear, realistic steps

When we identify the barrier and build a solution that fits your life, exercise becomes more consistent and more successful.

👉 What barriers are making exercise hard for you?
Comment below!

I’d love to hear your experience.
