Luxury or Necessity?!?

For those who have known me for quite a while, I have dealt with chronic headaches. I can not remember when I did not have headaches, I know that time existed, but when was it. After trying a couple of different chiropractors, Kevin decided I needed to go and see my friend Heather. So couple of years ago I started going in for massages on my neck, back and shoulders. Heather did a great job on working my knots out. There would come a time when they would taper off, only to return a few days later. The conclusion of my headaches was from stress and tension. The reason this is the conclusion is because I had a MRI, got glasses for reading, and my neck and shoulders are constantly tight. Okay, so fast forward to now.....I do not go to school, I do not babysit, I am a stay at home mom and I love it!!! Headaches?? Yes, they are still there, but only occasionally.... No longer everyday, maybe once a week. I can only go about 3 weeks until I need to get my neck, shoulders, back and head worked on or they come back full force. I do as I please during the days, although I must say for over a month now I have been canning and I finished yesterday. The list is long on what I canned and I am so proud of myself. Okay enough babbling. This topic has just been on my mind lately. I would say my massages are definitely a necessity, after all, I am a much nicer person when my head is not pounding constantly!!!!
