Walking and running help to alleviate migraine headaches




Headaches affect many people and in many cases can not be tolerated at all. But those who exercise such as walking and running they can reduce the incidence of headaches and alleviate their suffering. According to the results of a recent study sport affects the strength, duration and number of heart migraines.

Can practice walking, running, reducing the duration of the normal incidence of migraine and to a large extent. This is confirmed by a study conducted at the University Hospital of Kiel in Germany, and by the German Association of migraine patients with migraine suffer since more than 20 years of this injury.
Participated in the study 52 people infected with migraine, participants were divided into two groups, first practiced by jogging and walking exercises the second, 28 participants committed themselves to a plan which included training and exercises three times a week, 30 minutes each time for ten weeks.
The scientific team studying the migraine attacks when participants eight weeks before the study and during the training phase and eight weeks after the study. Result: Both groups have shown positive effects of sport on the disease, migraine, where the Panel noted that the headaches were less severe and shorter in comparison with before the training program.
 Where the study showed that the proportion of days of infection decreased in people who have followed jogging to 17.2 percent and the percentage of the number of hours the pain was down to 21.8 percent per month. The group chose to walk down the average number of injuries per month migraine headache rate of 1.3 cases per month less.
Scientific team says the supervisor of the study that the reason for the positive effects of sport on the number and strength and duration of migraine attacks is to accelerate the pace of the production of hormones in the brain, and that the task of reducing the impact of the stress hormone and the impact on levels and thus on the degree of pain.
But scientists say that treatment is through sports can not be applied to every patient with migraine, because sports are not the concerns of many people, but the best way is not taking the normal dosage and drugs in it.
