Headache Relief

Are you searching frantically for a headache remedy that really does the trick? Here's a few things you can try that are cheap, easy and effective.

1. Dress suitable when you are indoors as well as outdoors. Your choice of what to wear must be in complete harmony with the weather conditions and the temperature around you.

You have to understand that too much is just as bad as too little. If you wrap yourself up tightly all the time you are in fact restricting the flow of blood to certain parts of the body.

Ties and scarves must be avoided as much as possible and if you have to wear these, try to keep them as loose as possible without appearing too dowdy.

2. While traveling be nice to your body and give it time to adjust to any time changes. For example if you are flying across the International Date Line, you will experience jet lag. Give you body time to adjust to such uncommon things.

Try your best to get the sleep that your body needs while you are traveling. Do not bury your nose in a book or watch a movie, SLEEP

3. Know your sinus points and use the acupressure method to treat your self and rid yourself of the pain.

The best thing about the acupressure method is that it has no side effects. It is something that you can do completely on your own and if you are doing it properly, you can get almost instant relief.

I have described the steps in detail in the points that follow. Try doing it and I promise you, you will be glad that you did it.

1. First of all you have to get a clear idea of where your sinuses really are.

2. For this I recommend that you lie down on a flat surface preferably without the support of a pillow.

3. The next thing you should do is run your fingers gently over your face, taking note of the various rises and falls.

4. Now let your fingers linger in the portion above your eyes but just below the eyebrow.

5. Feel the bone over there and let you fingers sense out a notch in that bone.

6. This space extends from there towards the nasal bone.

7. This is your first sinus point

8. Now let your fingers trail down further till they reach the depressions if we can call them that on both sides of the nose halfway between the eyes and your mouth. This is your second sinus point.

9. Now what you have to do is apply pressure to these sinus points.

10. You have to be careful when you do this and please take care to use only the soft balls of your fingers and not the tips, which may have long nails.

11. First of all apply pressure gently.

12. You might experience a particular pricking sensation as you do.

13. If it hurts, you may stop immediately.

14. If not you may continue applying more and more pressure till you can tolerate it.

15. Then gently let go and lie there fore a minute experiencing the pain fading away.

16. Repeat this with the second sinus point.

17. A point that you may bear in mind is that if your sinuses are infected these regions will be slightly swollen.

Try these tips and follow this simple advice today, and your headaches will soon become a distant memory.
