A headache is a common physical discomfort. For an immediate relief to this annoying pain, try one of these home remedies.
- Acupuncture.
Pressing your fingers on vital points are said to help alleviate some physical discomforts, including headaches.
- Go nuts.
For tension-type headaches, you need not go nuts. Instead, you can eat a handful of nuts to relieve yourself of a headache. Nuts are known to contain salicin, a natural pain reliever.
- Try an apple cider vinegar steam.
ACV has worked wonders for many, and it will help you relieve your headache too. Hold your face for about 5-10 minutes over a bowl half-filled with boiling water and 1/4 cup of ACV. The steam from the water mixed with ACV will eventually make you fill better.
- Take a breather once in a while.
Working for hours, just staying in front of the computer and sitting for hours on end puts a lot of stress on your body. Taking your minds and your eyes off your work, stretching, and just relaxing for a while will loosen up your muscles and, to some extent, help relieve a headache.
- Sometimes a headache is the body’s signal for its need to re-fuel.
Take a quick snack to replenish your energy before going back to work.
