🤕June is National Migraine and Headache Awareness Month 😱

🔷Through the month of June, we will discuss different types of headaches, why they occur, and some management strategies.🔷

🚨Not all headaches are the same and there is not a one size fits all treatment for headaches. Every individual’s situation is different and should be managed accordingly!❗️

❓Have you been working at home since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic?🏠

👩‍💻Has this forced you to use a makeshift workspace that is actually just lounging on your couch? 🛋

🤕Spending extended periods of time working from a low table or leaning backward on a couch can lead to neck pain, headaches, and TMJ pain.😱

💪Try using chin tucks and scapular retractions to break up those irritating postures!

🚨
By performing 1-2 of either exercise each time you check your email or social media, you can help get those pesky pains to go away.😃

‼️Remember that these exercises should never hurt. Keep them comfortable!!!

📬Share with a friend that you know has been having trouble with working at their computer due to pain.

❓Did you rest your chin on your hands while you were sitting at your desk in school? Are you still resting your chin on your hand while you are reading this? ❓

😱This position might be comfortable at the moment, but unfortunately it can cause microtrauma and irritation to your TMJ. 🚨

Resting your chin on your hand every once in a while is not going to bother anything. What can become very problematic is when it becomes a habit that you are doing day in and day out. 😵

👍Be mindful of this position in order to avoid irritating your TMJ!🎉
