About 24 million Americans have migraines.  Sufferers of migraine headaches may occur at any age but commonly begin between ages 10 through 40; in addition, women are more susceptible than men.

A medical journal titled the Annals of Behavioral Medicine published a 2006 study that reported massage therapy recipients exhibited fewer migraines and improved sleep quality than the control group.  Another medical periodical titled International Journal of Neuroscience published a 1998 study that found massage therapy reduced the occurrence of headaches, sleep disturbances and distress symptoms in adults with migraines.

Research illustrates massage therapy may facilitate greater comfort and promote greater functional everyday living.  Improve your quality of life through massage and bodywork.
