Relaxation Techniques
Sinus headaches can also be due to sinus pressure that makes a person feel tightness in the neck, face, and head. So, try using relaxation techniques to ease the pain of sinus headaches, just like how it is with sinus pressure. Biofeedback therapy is among the common relaxation techniques used as a home remedy for sinus headaches. It is a method for alternative treatment in which a person learns to control their bodily functions.
This method, which combines meditation and deep breathing exercises to promote relaxation and lessen pain, has been shown to be effective in treating headaches. More so, the person is connected to their body’s electrical sensors during biofeedback, which enables them to learn more about their body. This feedback allows them to adjust their body subtly to achieve the desired effects, such as pain relief, by relaxing specific muscles. In simple terms, biofeedback allows experimentation with different body-control techniques, often to enhance a physical or health condition.
Aside from biofeedback, other relaxation techniques have the potential to relieve sinus headaches. Among those are yoga, massage, humming, and meditation.
