Yin Yoga and migraine relief

Post by Amaya »

I was wondering if anyone had used Yin Yoga successfully to help deal with migraines. I suffer from migraines every month (in very direct link to my cycle) and was wondering if I should favour some poses during my practice. I practice Yin Yoga every day.
Thank you.

Great, thank you. I'd not thought about wall yin but I think it might be worth incorporating that at some point. I'll keep you updated.

Adho Mukha Svanasana is beneficial for migraine pain. In starting do it for 2-3 times and after sometime do it in the sets.

Thank you. I do DDog regularly but I will try and increase the number of times I'm doing it and the hold time.
