Headache is the most unpleasant phenomenon that we can feel. The causes of headaches and the intensity of the pain are very different, and before you reach for a pill, take a minute from your time and try these three trick.
Pencil
When we are nervous, tense and stressed, we often subconsciously press our teeth, there by straining the muscle that connects the jaw and temple, which results in a headache. To prevent this, simply bite a pencil, which disables the jaw muscles and relaxes them and thus it prevents the pain.
Mint
Do you have problems with sinusitis and allergies? If so try this mint oil massage and massage your forehead. In your palm put a little bit of baby or olive oil and a few drops of essential mintoil. Use your finger to mix them, and then apply the mixture on your forehead and sinus area next to the nose and the area of the temples. Massage your face using circular motions for about a minute.
Acupressure
Acupressure is an ancient technique that with the help of specific points on the body can alleviate or solve many problems. Find the place in the upper part of your hand where the bone meets the forefinger and the thumb. Press this place with your thumb and forefinger and using very slow movements (three to four rounds per minute) massage this area for a minute or longer if needed.
