The Sternocleidomastoid (SCM) attaches superiorly behind the ear and inferiorly to the chest and collarbone to stabilize and flex the head and neck.
It is notoriously involved in headaches formed at the crown (top) of the head, front of the head, and temporal (side) region.
Did you know that trigger points in the SCM may cause headaches, vertigo, blurred vision, sinus drainage, and a host of other disturbances.
Release of this muscle can bring a sense of lightness to the neck and head as well as relieving persistent tension headaches.
