Headache Prevention - Cluster Headaches - What You Can Do?

Cluster headaches are experienced as often as migraines but as any sufferer knows they are extremely painful.
However there are some steps you can take for relief.
Whilst the cause of clusters is unknown, what happens to you is that something causes your blood vessels to dilate and this swelling puts pressure on the trigeminal nerve Your trigeminal nerve is the largest of the facial nerves and extends from your brain all the way through your brain stem.
Sometimes cluster headaches are confused with migraines.
However there are a couple of important differences.
1.
Migraines are more often experienced by women, and you can get relief from lying down.
2.
Cluster headaches are more often experienced by men and are helped by remaining upright and active.
Many people experience cluster headaches in the cooler months; this is autumn (Fall) for some and winter in colder climates.
As with any head pain proper diagnosis needs to be performed to rule out any serious pathology.
I encourage clients to keep a record or other health issues i.
e.
do you have sleep problems, do you snore, are your sleep cycles irregular.
What other health issues are existing? Any of these need to be addressed Why are these issues important? As mentioned earlier cluster headaches have an unknown cause, whenever I am confronted with such a condition then its back to basics.
1.
Check digestive function and address any problems.
Digestive problems can allow micro food particles to enter the blood stream, your immune system will respond and the result can be headaches.
If it doesn't help at least you will have a healthy gut.
2.
Detox the gut and the liver.
I have had great success with detox in reducing the frequency and severity of all kinds of headaches.
Think of your liver a s big filter, if the filter is blocked then your whole system is affected.
This is a simplistic explanation, but again I speak from results.
3.
Scnenar treatment is a standard part of my therapy, Google Scnenar and find a local practitioner.
The idea is to support the entire spinal column and spinal nerves, in doing so the trigeminal nerve is treated and an overall improvement to health is experienced 4.
Keep a diary of your headaches noting any factors that are potentially involved in the preceding days.
The most effective way is to keep a regular diary, so that you can look back and see patterns, which may include work routines, family activities and general.
You will need to be do some detective work 5.
I always include magnesium, 2 teaspoons per day.
You may have to divide the dose as sometimes magnesium can upset you stomach.
