In this episode of The Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves introduces the Resiliency Principle—a powerful concept that explains why true, lasting relief from headaches and migraines comes from building physical resilience through movement, not just passive rest. While naps, massages, and downtime have their place, they don’t create long-term change. Dr. Taves explains how engaging your muscles in the ways they were designed to move can provide the most lasting benefits. If you're relying on rest alone for relief, this episode will shift your perspective and show you how to move your way toward healing.
