I have shared this with some people, since, I have recieved numerous e-mail requests, so here it is, just remember I am not a doctor(so this may actually help) just another clusterhead.
During the dance if you put both hands on the back of your neck(overlapped),put your chin to your chest and pull down hard, at the same time touching your elbows.So it is a pull down squeeze in move.
What I belive this does is cut the blood supply to the head. If you do it to long you will actually start to feel your arms jerk invoulantarily. Practice makes perfect, I have been doing this for over twenty years.
What I get from this during an attack is a 10 sec. to 1 min. break from the pain. During an attack this is like a gift from heaven!!!
I wish all a pain free day!!!!!!!!!!!!
