Please help stress and cose pain musel
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some people : Carry a lot of their tension/ stress in their upper back, neck and even the scalp muscles. To address stress: talk about feelings ; address problems. Don't avoid them. Aim for 7.5 - 8 hours of sleep/ night. Daily physical activity is optimal in a green space. Eat healthfully. Cut out junk carbs, caffeine ; alcohol (or moderate). Try qi gong, tai chi, acupuncture, acupressure or meditation.
