Do you build a system or rely on motivation to execute with migraine?

What are your 3 most common barriers to exercise?

The best exercise plan isn’t the one that works on perfect days.

It’s the one that still works when life gets messy.

One of the biggest mistakes people make with exercise and migraine is starting at their goal instead of their starting point.

Your starting point shouldn’t be based on what you’re capable of doing once.

It should be based on what you can consistently recover from and repeat.

What’s one exercise goal you have—and what might be a smaller starting point to help you get there? 👇

Most people picture physical therapy happening in a clinic.

But for many people with headache and migraine disorders, being treated in their own environment changes everything.

Less stress. Less travel. More comfort. More real-life carryover.

And yes… the new purple table had to make its debut 💜

Question for you: if you could choose, would you rather do PT in a clinic or from the comfort of home?

Exercise for migraine is not about finding the one “best” activity, it is about finding what you can tolerate, access, enjoy, recover from, and progress consistently.

My take on 1st rib mobilization. Save this for when that spot feels stuck.

Most people try to stretch this area with a strap or towel… but it’s hard to get enough pressure and even harder to relax into it.

This is why I like using a heavy loop band instead.

It gives you consistent pressure so you can actually move through it.

Here’s how I use it:
• Stand on the band (opposite foot) and place it on the tight area
• Start with 3–5 sit to stands
• Then stay upright and add side bending
• Finish with rotation

The goal isn’t to force a stretch.
It’s to combine pressure + movement so things feel less guarded.

Do your headache or migraine symptoms tend to build as the day goes on especially after work, screens, or long periods of sitting?

Most people assume their neck is “tight” because it needs more stretching.

But often, the issue is overload (aka fatigue). Stretching makes this worse.

Your neck has been working all day:

* holding your head up
* stabilizing while you move
* compensating when support and endurance are low

Over time, that system gets fatigued.

And fatigue often feels like:

* tension
* stiffness
* pressure
* increased headache or migraine symptoms

Stretching might feel good temporarily. But if the underlying issue is overload, the cycle keeps repeating.

What tends to help more is improving support, control, and endurance so the neck has more support by the end of the day.
