"Hot Flashes" and Sweating
|
Can't Post
|
|
I don't know if the term is "hot flashes", but lately I've been experiencing hot feelings on the head, neck and shoulder area. As a result, I sweat excessively when these "hot flashes" occur. They do not occur all the time, but frequently enough to disrupt my day at work or keep me from falling asleep. My instincts tell me that they occur when my muscles are strained around the neck and shoulder area. In fact, the problems seems to get better when I do some shoulder and neck streching exercises.
Does anyone know what I can do from a yoga standpoint? Does this have to do with the thyroid gland?
