Migraines
This is one amazing revelation. And it has no possible basis in fact or, even, medical theory. It is amazing how these things get started.
Migraines can be traced to hormonal changes (not necessarily "sex" hormones); circulatory issues and serotonin levels.
I guess if someone thinks with his butt, this may be reasonable.
ya she says the cause could be from her birth control too. is that a possibility? Can migraines be massaged out?
It is certainly possible that her migraines COULD be caused by the hormones in her birth control medication- although I am on birth control for the opposite effect of reducing the migraines! But your friend has some rather odd ways of describing migraine headaches and their etiology. If she is that concerned, she should see a GP or neurologist. Competent massage may reduce the pain, but in my experience, it will not cure the migraine.
It is not unlikely that migraines are related to birth control. Your description and discussion sounds more like stress headaches than migraines. Often confused. Massage, properly done, can help with stress headaches; will do nothing for migraines.
