Whether you know? The mass of a human brain is about 2% of body weight. At the same time this body consumes 18% of the energy developed by a body and also about 20% of the oxygen coming to an organism. Power of the electric field created by it exceeds 20 W.
Results of exercises
Of course, all above technicians do not guarantee absolute result. In certain cases problems with headaches are solved only with the help of drug or other treatment. However it is very frequent on condition of regular performance of treatment-and-prophylactic complexes for the head and a neck it is possible to receive the following positive results:
- full disposal of headaches, dizzinesses, raskoordination of movements;
- reduction of irritability;
- emergence of a normal dream;
- strengthening of vessels of a brain;
- general normalization of a condition of an organism.
As we see, problems with headaches and other symptoms of violations of normal work of vessels of a brain in many cases can be solved by non-drug methods, such as medical exercises and massage. Such practicians and as preventive measures are good. Of course, it is necessary to remember that it is not a panacea, and in some cases similar manifestations testify to the serious diseases demanding full treatment.
