- All right, Bob.
We're gonna show our viewers today
three of my favorite options
to get rid of tension headaches here or here,
so that you can sleep like a baby and it's very exciting.
- Wonderful.
♪ Bob and Brad ♪
♪ The two most famous physical therapists ♪
♪ On the internet ♪
- All right, Bob, tension-headaches, headaches
whatever they are, however you get them,
I personally can get them consistently
when I work at the computer
and I'm very intent on my actually videos.
- Right?
- And after about a hour, I am just all bound up,
and I have to get away from-
- Lot of tension right here.
- My particular tension falls
in the muscles of the temporalis muscles here.
- Some people have it back here.
- I have it up here.
- On top of the head. - Head.
- So, what I wanna show you here is three options.
The first thing that you'll wanna to do
is address those areas.
I personally go in a recliner and I recline back.
You could do this lying down on the bed.
Standing up is probably not gonna work so well.
- Laying down. No, laying down.
You're right. - Yeah.
- You're right.
- Karen, the English major she should be proud.
Okay, so take your fingers and we'll get to those muscles.
Bob, do you wanna turn around
and show the one behind the head?
- Although she's gonna be so tall.
Tanner is not doing the...
Just watch me, that's right, Bob sit down.
He's never gonna-
- I could do it in this one.
- Oh, that's right, well, we'll see.
Oh, that's right, he's looking at that.
Oh, circles, circles.
Now the temporalis muscle,
really it's not just over the temple,
but it fans way out and you can get out into the air.
But this is a feeling good already.
How are you doing Bob?
- Well, I'm doing good, Brad.
- Yeah, oh my goodness. - So I can do circles.
I can also do S-plane, my two fingertips together.
- And I pull apart like that.
- And that's a big difference.
- Yeah
- It's a different approach,
and it's a good way to do both of them actually.
- They both feel good.
- Yep, I'm already starting to relax, Bob.
So if you get it up here, do you work up here a little bit?
- I have a device actually. - You do?
- Massages there.
- I've got a device too Bob,
I'm gonna show it in just a second.
- Okay.
- All right, so you're gonna work that
and the next thing is to use either heat or cold.
- Now, what works well...
Did we talk about this?
- No, not yet.
- Oh, good, I kind of got mixed up.
You can get a cold pack like this,
you can buy one and you have to get one that's gel,
and when you pull it out of the freezer,
it has to maintain flexibility.
- Right.
- Cheap ones come out and they're real stiff.
- They're hard. - They will not work.
So you gotta get one that comes out as a gel.
What works well, if you get some rice
and actually I almost think this works better in some ways.
Get your sock, get a clean sock not a dirty one.
I got my gargoyle socks, I sacrificed them.
And fill it up.
I've got about - - Gargoyle socks
- Oh yeah, that's right.
I'm working on that.
So, half a pound of rice I put in there, tie a knot in it,
and then you can put that in the microwave
for about 30 seconds.
Depends on how strong your microwave is.
Don't get it too hot, don't cook your rice, all right?
And that will go over your eyeballs.
And I like mine around,
so it touches those temporalis muscles
and starts to warm those.
Now some people-
- Prefer cold.
- Prefer cold, so do that if that works better
and you may wanna trade from one side,
one day to the next, I don't know.
Here-
- You can freeze rice but it doesn't help much.
I don't think it makes it very cold,
it's not very cold.
- Well it doesn't feel as cold as this, but you can try it.
You can do the back of the head,
use your rice pack on the back of the head.
- Yeah, when you heat up the rice,
I'd recommend like, mix it around a little bit too
to make sure you don't have any hot spots.
- Yep, absolutely.
Get the even distribution. - Right.
- But the feel of rice is just...
It conforms really well.
- Right? - Alright-
- And it makes you hungry. (Brad laughs)
- There is a little smell to it, that is true.
Now my favorite thing I discovered
in the last six months or so is,
we had a company send this eye massager.
- Right?
- And I look at it and it's like this-
- You're the biggest critic.
- I was a skeptic, it's like,
I'm gonna try this, I'm gonna laugh at it and say,
ha ha, I am not gonna endorse this.
And you know what happened with that?
I tried it, I put it on
and the little button here, you turn it on.
And it talks to you, so it's easy to...
There. - Ah.
- Now what this can do...
What was that?
You can't hear that, it makes it easier for me.
It does three things,
it massages with pressure and it gets my temples,
which is key, I liked it right away.
It also heats up, you feel the heat across your eyes
and on the side, okay?
And it also makes music or noise.
You can Bluetooth it to your phone,
to any kind of music you want.
- And number four, it blocks out light.
- It does, so in the middle of the day
and I did this yesterday, came home was all stressed out.
'Cause I was working with Bob, you know how that is?
- I pushed him over the edge
(Brad laughs)
- And I was in my recliner
and I was little stressed out driving this and that,
and I gotta relax.
- Darned that Bob.
- Now this thing turns off after 15 minutes.
- Turns off, right?
- And it even gives you a warning.
- Sure.
- If the batteries low it gives you a warning.
It's all battery operated.
But anyways, I'm listening to it,
and the next thing I know I wake up
and I thought it was morning.
I was in that deep of a sleep
and it's like, no, I'm on my recliner, and it's like...
And it happens very often with this-
- Right?
- I can't...
And if you don't like it,
we'll back it so much that
you can send it back and get your refund.
- And it's rechargeable, right?
- It is rechargeable.
You plug it into that little finger,
(indistinct) onto the USB port.
It is a nice thing.
- Yeah, you're a big fan. - Yeah
- And I'm okay with it.
- Mother's day is coming up.
- There you go.
- It might be something that your mother may appreciate.
So, whatever you got the sock, the rice, the cold pack-
- You put stress in her life, now take it out.
- Exactly.
Yeah, my mother maybe she would like one.
I'm not sure.
Anyways, good luck. - Guys, thanks.
