Learning how to relax

My son was taught a variety of relaxation techniques to use when he began to feel pain. He learned these techniques from a psychologist who specialized in pain management. As a migraine sufferer, I always found it hard to relax during an extremely painful migraine episode. In fact, the only thing that worked for me was to concentrate during the moments when the pain subsided a little. It was then that I would breathe deeply and feel my body relax a little.
