What is “The Scandinavian Method”?

The Scandinavian Method (TSM) is a proactive lifestyle program that aims to reduce our clients’ migraine and tension-type headaches through a 90-day program. This science-based program is individually designed to battle the problems that trigger your Migraine and Headaches.
The program is based on national recommendations by the Norwegian Directorate of Health and other associations like the American Migraine Foundation.

The Self Assessment Procedure

This comprehensive test is similar to the assessment a doctor and therapist would do. This test will search for problems that can trigger your migraine/TTH. You can even upload pictures of yourself and have them reviewed by our AI. This will be done three times during the program.

We go through the following sections: your body, your mind, your nutrition and your exercise routines.

The Body

It has been scientifically proven that the following leeds to higher frequency and severity of headache attacks:

  • Poor posture – such as Forward Tilted Head and Rounded shoulders
  • Inactivity and weaker muscles
  • Over- and Underweight

In this section you can upload pictures of yourself and input personal data.

Our AI will help you analyze your posture and tailor a program from 128 different Posture Corrective Exercises.

This part aims to

  • better your posture
  • strengthen the problem areas which could be leading to your headaches

The Mind

In this section we look for factors such as stress and sleep disorders that are proven to cause migraine.

The program will provide you with follow along stress management techniques as well as easy daily routines to lower your stress.

We aim to

  • reduce your stress
  • reduce tension
  • improve your sleep

80% report stress as a trigger for migraines and TTH. Stress can lead to

  • fatigue
  • food cravings
  • mood changes
  • neck stiffness
  • constipation
  • frequent yawning

About 85% of people with migraines say they sleep poorly. Stress can keep you awake at night.

Research has shown that combining behavioral treatments with preventive medication treatments works better for preventing headaches than medications alone.

Nutrition

Here we go through your nutrition and other habits related to food, drinks, tobacco and medication.

The program will provide you with food plans (Mediterranean and Nordic diet) and general information about how you can improve your nutrition to give you better health.

This part aims to

  • avoid migraine triggers
  • reduce inflammation in your body
  • regulate your blood sugar
  • lowering your blood pressure (blood lowering medication is often used as migraine prevention)
  • regulate your BMI
  • reduce the risk of Dementia, Diabetes Type-2 and other lifestyle related diseases
  • reduce stress
  • improve general health

Exercise routine

In this section we will go through your exercise routines and general fitness.

The program will give you a weekly exercise program with the aim to

  • give you a better health
  • regulate weight
  • reduce stress

It is important that you find the exercise that fits you. Although exercise has a prophylactic effect on migraine frequency, doing it wrong can trigger migraine attacks.

Goals

Beside reducing the frequency and intensity of your migraines and headaches the program have several goals. Some of these goals can be reached in a short time, while others will take the entire 90 days – and for some even longer.

Short term

  • Less stress

  • Better sleep

  • Lower blood pressure

  • Better mood

Long term

  • Better posture

  • Regulate blood sugar

  • Stronger body

  • Lower risk for Diabetes Type-2

Note that there will be individual differences and for some of our clients not all of these goals are reachable in the duration of the program.

I started getting headaces in 2015. At first they were mild, but in the last two years they have become worse and worse. I have tried a lot of treatments, physical therapy, mindfulness, dentists, and treatment by a neurologist. After just one week of this program I felt so much better. I got my sleep back, lost 3 kg. This is amazing! I really enjoy this – Maike, The Netherlands
