When the neck becomes a trap for pain

Did you know that stress is one of the most common triggers for migraines? When stressed, neck muscles tighten unconsciously. This tension presses on the occipital nerves at the base of the skull and triggers the typical pulsating pain. If relaxation techniques and massages no longer help, surgical decompression of the nerves can be the solution. During this procedure, the tissue is adjusted so that the nerves are no longer irritated even during stressful phases.
