In this episode of The Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves takes listeners on a fascinating journey through history — exploring how habits like toothbrushing and hand washing became universal health practices, and why head and neck movement should be viewed the same way.

Using examples from dental hygiene and early medicine, Dr. Taves explains how simple, overlooked solutions — like brushing your teeth or washing your hands — transformed public health. He draws a powerful parallel to headaches and migraines, showing that regular movement and neck care could be the next major shift in preventive health.

Listeners will learn why our modern, sedentary lifestyles are creating “neck cavities,” and how small, consistent movement habits can prevent chronic pain, much like daily brushing prevents tooth decay.

Dr. Taves challenges us to rethink our approach to health: what if the key to long-term headache and migraine relief isn’t a new medication, but a new daily habit?
