Those muscles go to the top of your head for it's movements so anything tight up there can feel like a headache, it's right next to the brain. The nerves for your vision go right past those tight muscles, which press into them when tight, on their way to the vision center in the back of your head. That pressure causes the pupils to dilate or a dull pain in the back of your eyes. To get rid of these pains you have to release the muscles in your neck and here's how to do that:<br />Neck<br />Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your head. Squeeze your thumb and fingers together and hold. Relax your body. After 45 seconds, slowly lower your head as far as you can, release the pressure but hold your neck lowered for another 30 seconds.<br />Neck<br />Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your head.

Sitting at school can be mentally draining, so you should constantly have a nice cool drink of water with you in class and consistently be drinking it the maintain hydration. You may also be getting headaches because of stress or lack of sleep. It is important before you go to bed to have some 'winding down' time (watch some tv, drink some ice cold water, listen to music, chill out on your bed) therefore relaxing your body and getting your mind ready for bed. You may not think these things are causing your headaches, but they actually workAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-2902295994839275312010-02-19T13:54:42.375+05:302010-02-19T13:54:42.375+05:30I’m glad this article is out.

That doesn't matter though, you release them all to get rid of the pain. Because you have had them for a while I am adding the second part of this on for you, it's good for getting all the muscles to release.

Let this be a moment for you to just relax and get some fresh air to help alleviate your headache. Then, go get a nice, cold drink and resume your daily activities.
