Best Neuromuscular Trigger Point Massage for Headache Pain: The Classic ‘Base of the Skull-to- Behind the Eye” Headache.
The Journal of Manual and Manipulative Therapy released a significant study into the source of "behind the eye" headaches a few years ago, and they found that a minor majority (just over half) of behind-the- eye headaches that come with matching ache in the base of the skull are associated with active trigger points in the suboccipital or splenius cervicis muscles — the muscles in your neck that stretch and contract the length of your neck, and let you tip your head from side to side. A qualified neuromuscular/trigger point massage therapist should be able to release such a trigger point in minutes, and 'train' the muscle to stay released over the course of a few weeks, making the headaches a memory quickly and easily.
