Computer Headaches Or Headaches From Your Computer?
Last time we talked about how forward head posture (tech neck) can cause those 2 hot spots in your upper back after sitting at your computer for prolonged periods.

The same muscle that can cause those hot spots when it gets overstretched, can also cause headaches; especially along the base of the skull.These will typically be on your dominate side.
They may also travel around the side of your head to the temple, or up and over the top of your head and settle in your forehead/orbital area.What to do??
Always be mindful of your posture when sitting at your computer.
Eyes up and chin up always.
Poor posture is mind-less, good posture is mindful.
Take a posture break at least once an hour.Use your soft-gel icepack along the base of your skull for 10-15 minutes once or twice a day to soothe those tender spots.
