Your head after you bump it, or when you have a headache. I swear it makes it feel 10 times better. Why is that?

It helps as most things do feel good when the right amount of pressure is applied to it along with the rubbing motion increases the blood flow.

Well subconsiously when rubbing your head or any aching bodypart, pressure is being applied. Applying pressure regulates the blood flow... and regulated blood flow leads to a great relaxing sensation.

It increases the circulation. Take a shower and wash your hair is a good way to get rid of a stress headache.

You're stimulating your brain by forcing it to recognize the pressure you're applying to your head, replacing the pain signals that were being sent to the brain from the bump.

it always good to get the blood flowing to your head by rubbing it, it even better when someone else rubs your head for you.

Because your nerve endings think some feelings are more important than others, so they block signals if 'more important' signals are detected.
This is why you scratch somewhere that's itchy. Your body thinks the scratching sensation is more important than the itch, so the message 'this body part is being scratched' overrides the signal 'this body part itches'.

Your hands have the power to heal. They give off electrical impulses that stimulating the area helping it to heal. Some people have more healing ability then others.
