massage for migraine

A soothing massage can help you keep the migraine at bay, reveals an Auckland University study. According to The New Zealand Herald, a research done by doctoral student Sheleigh Lawler has found that a regular upper body massage can reduce migraine attacks substantially.

Out of 47 migraine sufferers who took part in the study, half the group that received a 45-minute massage of the upper body and head region once a week for six weeks, in addition to their standard medication, got fewer migraines than those who didn't receive the massage.

The study also found that those who received the massage on a regular basis did not need to take the medication as often.
