Solve headaches and neck stiffness with a Daiso foam roller! (Jangsu Wang's personal headache relief method)

I had been experiencing headaches caused by neck stiffness and soreness for a long time, but using a Daiso foam roller greatly alleviated the headaches.

Did a common foam roller relieve your headache?
I can't believe it either, but that kind of thing really happens, haha.
 
Whether sitting in a chair or standing, the tension in my neck is high.
I feel a stiff and heavy sensation in my throat.
When you tilt your head down, you feel neck pain.
Every time that happens, a headache comes along with it.
My top or back of my head would feel numb.
In the past, I thought neck pain and headaches were separate, but they are related. Neck pain can also cause headaches.
 
Using a chair with a neck support somewhat alleviated the pain.
Since there is no headrest when standing, the pain has returned again.
Even a slight nod causes pain.
 
Acupressure and stretching to loosen the muscles around the neck are helpful, but I experienced a definite relief from headaches by using a Daiso foam roller.
I am amazed that headaches caused by neck pain are being relieved with a commonly used foam roller.
I had been suffering from headaches for such a long time that I almost thought it was chronic headaches.
When I have a headache, I often feel mentally foggy and tired, and I want to lie down. Lying down usually helped reduce the headache.

[Daiso Foam Roller Usage Instructions]
 
All procedures should be done gently.
❌ And if you have a neck disc issue, I don't think you should use it. (If you have a neck disc, I recommend the neck acupressure method outlined below.)
For turtle neck or straight neck, doing this can strain your neck, so it's not recommended.
 
You should lie down gently as if resting your head on a pillow.
The foam roller is hard, so I have to lie down carefully and gently. You shouldn't just plop down suddenly. It could cause a serious problem.
I just lie down on the bed or lay a blanket and lie down.
Bring the foam roller to your neck.
 
Gently place the foam roller on the area connected to the top of the neck and head, then press down firmly.
✔ The protruding part of the foam roller presses on the neck muscles, so there is some pain, but it's a refreshing pain, and it's good to press on it for a while. It hurts, but the refreshing feeling is just right. Haha
Pressing and holding for a while won't completely eliminate neck pain, so it's best to gently massage and apply pressure daily with caution.
 
It's a different level from manual acupressure.
At first, lie flat and slowly find the tense point in your neck, then stay lying down for a while.
Then, he turns his head slightly to the right and left to find a cool spot and presses acupuncture points all over.

There are two types of protrusions on the Daiso foam roller.
The feeling of using short protrusions and long protrusions is different.
A short protrusion is more painful and feels more refreshing.
 
You can press on the upper part of your neck and then also press downwards.
I am using a foam roller to apply pressure for about 30 minutes in the morning and evening.
The sore throat and stiffness have significantly decreased compared to before use.
The headache has also been relieved.
I would like to recommend that those experiencing headaches caused by stiffness or heaviness in the neck try using it once.
 
I will also show my wife how to perform neck acupressure using a foam roller on YouTube. She used a foam roller made of EVA material without protrusions. It's a method where you wrap it like a pillow and gently rock your head left and right.

❌ Do not do this for turtle neck or straight neck conditions.
Your neck is bent, which could worsen your turtle neck.
A non-protruding EVA foam roller longer than 90cm can be placed straight along the shape of a person's body. Then, lie on it with your neck and back aligned straight. Use the end of the foam roller to apply pressure to the neck area.
 
Criteria for selecting a foam roller to relieve neck stiffness and pain
A thinner thickness is better.
If it's too thick, you have to lift your neck too much, which isn't good.
I am using a diameter of about 9.5 cm.
There is a cushion when you press the protruding part, but
It tends to feel quite tight when using it while lying down~
I think a longer one would be better for versatile use.
 
Recommended to use a foam roller without EVA protrusions when using a foam roller for the first time
They sell a 60cm long cushion made of EVA material without protrusions at Cachel.

[You can't cure all headaches with foam roller neck pressure...]
 
Of course, the causes of headaches are very diverse.
Some people may not see any effect.
Just relieving the tension in the knotted part of your neck can help your health, so I think it would be good for you to try using it.
 
However, it is not recommended if you have a cervical disc herniation.
Foam rollers are good not only for the neck but also for massaging the calves.
Rolling a foam roller under your calves feels very refreshing.
Having one really comes in handy.
This is an item I want to praise!
 
In the morning and evening, loosen up your neck muscles with a foam roller.
It's good to do neck acupressure whenever you think of it.
There are two acupressure points on the neck for headache relief.

I am trying not to bend my neck in daily life.
 
Does prolonged use of smartphones cause neck pain and headaches?
Smartphones are usually looked at with your head bowed down.
Headaches can be triggered by such habits.
 
You should try not to bow your head whenever possible.
The more you bow your head,
The load on the neck increases.
Sore throat occurs and leads to pain around the neck.
Headaches can also be caused.
 
My neck is always hurting!
 
Except when lying down, the neck is always bearing weight.

Because the head, which weighs about 5kg, is supporting the neck. When standing upright and looking straight ahead with proper posture, the load is approximately 5kg, the same as the weight of the head. However, when tilting the head downward, the load increases several times.

If you tilt your head about 30 degrees, the load on your neck increases by more than three times, and if you tilt it 60 degrees, the load increases by more than five times.
The more you tilt your head down, the higher pressure is exerted on your neck, leading to neck muscle pain, headaches, and in severe cases, even cervical disc problems.
 
Managing Chronic Headaches Caused by Unusual Throat Pain
It was my own method for dealing with headaches.

      저와 같은 증상을 겪고 계신다면 좋은 효과 보실 수 있을거라고 생각됩니다
      단 처음 사용하실 경우 저처럼 돌기있는 폼롤러는 통증이 좀 클 수 있어요 시원하긴 하지만 eva 재질 돌기 없는게 더 좋을 거란 생각이 들더라구요

      폴롤러의 활용도가 아주 다양한거 같습니다. 크게 힘들이지 않고도 지압할 수 있는 점이 아주 좋은거 같아요
      그냥 누워 있거나 몸을 살짝살짝 움직여서 원하는 부위 지압을 할 수 있으니 말이죠 
      디스크나 골다공증이 있으시면 주의해야 하는점은 기억해야 될 거 같습니다
