Everyone says stress causes headaches—but what does that actually mean?
In Part 1 of this two-part series, Dr. Taves explains what stress is, how it affects your body, and why chronic stress can increase headaches and migraines.
Rather than blaming stress itself, this episode explores how your body's stress response can lower your pain threshold, increase muscle tension, and make headaches more likely. Most importantly, you'll learn practical strategies to help your body recover from chronic stress.
You'll learn:
What stress actually is and why it's a normal part of life
The difference between healthy stress and chronic stress
How chronic stress lowers your headache threshold
Why stress causes neck, jaw, and shoulder tension
How stress affects your nervous system, hormones, sleep, and overall health
Practical ways to calm your nervous system and reduce headache triggers
If you've ever said, "My headaches are just caused by stress," this episode will help you understand what's really happening inside your body—and what you can do about it.
