Should I use the Range when having a headache or migraine?

Definitely. Tension headaches form from trigger points in the muscles at the base of the skull, and these places affect migraines and jaw pain also. You may want to consider (wink-wink) using the Range, formerly the Nuckle, before a headache develops as prevention. This way, your muscles won’t accumulate headache-causing tightness.

When using the Range to relieve your headache, make sure you stay on one spot (no rubbing back-and-forth) for at least 90 seconds, and possibly longer, until you feel the tightness reducing. Otherwise, you could aggravate latent trigger points instead of relieving them. Be patient and breathe.

If the pain from the headache becomes worse or the pain in the muscles doesn’t improve after the first 30 seconds, stop using the Range. Consider taking a break, try placing the tool in a slightly different location, use a different tip, or modify the amount of pressure you are applying.

The Range has helped many people reduce the frequency and magnitude of their headaches. However, every person's situation is unique. No matter what your history or symptoms are, consult with your healthcare practitioner before initiating any new tool or treatment.
