頭痛　春頭痛

Headache ,Spring Headache

春は、低気圧と高気圧が交互に日本付近を通過するため大気の状態が不安定となり、寒暖の差も激しいので、頭痛を引き起こしやすくなります。また、環境変化によるストレスも重なって、頭痛、だるさ、眠気などの不定愁訴が多くなります。春に不調が増えるのは、気候の変動や、環境の変化などでストレスで、自律神経の働きが乱れやすいことが原因にあります。自律神経は体を活動させる交感神経と、休息させる副交感神経で成り立っています。副交感神経の働きが増してくる春は、交感神経が優位な冬の状態から切り替わる時期にあたり、気候、気温の変化から、自律神経の働きが乱れやすくなります。血管の拡張や収縮が適切に調節できなくなって、頭痛を引き起こしやすくなります。春は陽気のイメージが強いですが、花冷えというように、毎日の気温の変化や、昼と夜の気温差が大きいとも言えます。鍼灸治療としては痛みの強い患部に鍼を刺して、疼痛を緩和したり、免疫力を上げて、寒暖差に対応できるようにしていきます。

In spring, low and high pressure alternately pass near Japan, making the atmospheric conditions unstable, and the temperature difference between cold and warm can be severe, which can easily cause headaches. In addition, the stress caused by environmental changes also increases the number of complaints such as headaches, lethargy, and drowsiness. The reason for the increase in complaints in spring is that the autonomic nervous system is easily disturbed by stress due to climate change and environmental changes. The autonomic nervous system consists of the sympathetic nervous system, which activates the body, and the parasympathetic nervous system, which rests the body. In spring, when the parasympathetic nervous system is more active, the sympathetic nervous system switches from its predominant state in winter, and the autonomic nervous system is easily disturbed by changes in climate and temperature. The autonomic nervous system is easily disturbed due to changes in climate and temperature. The blood vessels are unable to properly regulate expansion and contraction, which can easily cause headaches. Although spring has a strong image of cheerfulness, it can also be said to have daily temperature changes and a large temperature difference between day and night, as in the case of hana-ochi (flower chill). As for acupuncture treatment, acupuncture needles are inserted into painful affected areas to alleviate pain and boost the immune system to cope with the difference in temperature between cold and hot.
