Rationale: Alternate-nostril breathing stems from the practice of yoga and helps reduce tension and sinus headaches. Passive progressive relaxation is a technique to relax the muscles without tightening them first and is useful for muscle spasms, lower back pain, tension headaches, insomnia, and anxiety. Guided imagery takes too much focus to use when suffering from a sinus headache and, if attempting to practice at that time, may in fact worsen the sinus headache. Tai chi is a body-based CAM practice that requires specific education and practice. When learned and practice is maintained, it has shown to improve one's sense of balance and is, therefore, useful as a health promotion and health maintenance tool rather than an adjunctive treatment for sinus headaches.
