Re: [RC] Tension Headaches and Riding - Chris Paus

Don't forget to BREATHE!

I was wondering if there are people on this list who
might have a similar
affliction to mine.  I tend to get very bad tension
headaches and find
that after an event the muscles in my shoulders and
neck are like steel
and I have headaches for between 1 and 3 days.

I do have a very bouncy horse (don't have the same
problems with my other
one) and even have the same issues sometimes after
long training rides.

Does anyone have any stretches or other remedies
that they have used
before or during the ride to lessen this problem?  I
really try and limit
my medication intake but so far live on ibuprofin
after the event.
Thanks,
Benedikte
