    Over 50% of the patients seeking primary medical care are seeking relief for head aches. Most headache cases are Tension Headaches. The best way to relieve tension headache is not medicine, but De-stress Massage. Generally Table Massage or Chair Massage can effectively take care of headache problems.
     So What causes headaches? It is stress. Stress causes the muscle to be in contraction. Muscle under contraction reduces the efficiency of the blood flow. Not only does this causes headaches, sometimes even serious disease would result. Most of the headaches (not all) are caused by contraction of two muscles. Levator Scampula and Trapezius

Levator Scampula connects Cervical Vertebrae and Scapula. It's main function is to lift Scapula

Trapezius is attached to the back of the head, neck, shoulder and upper back.

These two muscle are closely related to the head. Massaging of these two muscle can relax them, and naturally increase the efficiency of the blood flow to the head, and thus reduce the headaches or even make them disappear.
