End the headache!
Often the solution is as simple as updating the prescription of your glasses or contact lenses.
However, there are other causes that may be associated with more or less healthy lifestyle habits.
Here are 5 tips to promote your general health and avoid headaches:
-
Exercise frequently.
Exercise can help reduce the symptoms of migraines and headaches. Don't like gyms? Go walk! A half-hour walk every day after dinner is the best habit you can adopt when returning to work.
-
Sleep an average of 7 hours per night .
Sleeping little or poorly is extremely harmful to your health. Create healthy habits before bed: have a lighter dinner, avoid stimulating drinks, avoid screens before going to bed and you will see that you will have less insomnia and improve the quality of your sleep.
-
Healthy eating .
Avoid foods with a lot of salt, fried and processed foods; Eat several times a day and give preference to natural foods rich in fiber. Drink plenty of water during the day, always have a bottle of water next to you and at your workplace.
-
Pay attention to posture.
Paying attention to your posture during the day and correcting it when you feel your spine is curved, for example, can help reduce headaches.
-
Learn to relax
Yoga is an excellent practice for those who want to have a more balanced life, however, there are several relaxation techniques that you can practice without leaving home. Try replacing your smartphone or TV with half an hour of stretching on a mat before going to bed, not only will you improve the quality of your sleep, but in the long run you will feel more energy and general well-being.
Finally, if it's been a year since your last optometry appointment, don't put it off any longer and schedule yours at a Jorge Oculista store.
