Hi, I'm a newbie so not sure if I'm posting in the correct place, but I have been doing facercise for about 2 weeks and over the last week I have noticed a lot of neck tension and headaches. I also have a bit of a 'spacey' feeling. Has anyone else experienced this? I particularly notice a headache developing after the eye exercises. Am I doing something wrong, putting pressure on wrong parts of my face, perhaps? Thanks for any help. |

Hi Lisa
Whilst not a Facerciser, I teach another exercise system and so thought I may be able to shed some light here for you. When you activate a muscle, you are getting up to 10 times the usual amount of blood flow to that area, that’s why when people exercise their foreheads and eyes in the beginning they can experience headaches, but this usually subsides as time passes. Now with the neck, what a lot of people do is to tense the back of the neck during their training. It is easy to see if a person is working on their faces and spending 10-15 minutes twice a day that’s a lot of tensing going on, so next time your training, check your posture. Notice if you are putting your shoulders up during training and putting tension in the back of your neck.
Hope that helps!

Thank you Sean. Yes when I was doing my exercises last night, I took note of what I was doing with my neck and yes, I was really tensing it up, so I think that is the main problem. Also the blood flow thing was interesting, I didn't know that. Thanks again |
