Q. Every afternoon, I feel tightness in the back of my neck, and my head hurts as if a band is wrapped around it.

A.

It's a tension headache. This occurs when stress causes the trapezius and posterior neck muscles to contract, impeding blood circulation to the head. Acupuncture and Chuna therapy, which relax the muscles, are far more effective and quicker than painkillers.

📝 Detailed Answer

어깨에 을 너무 많이 지고 계십니다.

  • 자세: 거북목 자세는 근육 긴장을 4배 높입니다. 턱을 당기세요.
  • 칡(갈근): 뒷목 뻣뻣함을 풀어주는 최고의 약재입니다. 갈근탕이 명약입니다.
💡 스트레칭

1시간마다 기지개를 켜세요. 근육이 굳을 틈을 주지 말아야 합니다.
