I would prefer to not take traditional medications for that. I don't like them. Could use other thoughts on that if any have them.
Thanks.

Massage Relieves Headache By massaging these points, the corresponding body area receives specific therapeutic treatment. It's important to drink plenty of warm water after the massage, helps to clear away toxic substances in our body.

I thought I was getting a migraine today. Been stressin over some stuff in my personal life today. I took a couple pain pills I have for the pain in my knees and neck. (plus my knees are really aching today too!) I don't take the pain pills unless I just have to. I was seeing those shiny things in my sight that I used to get when I knew a migraine was coming. It went away and so far no migraine. thank god!!!!!!!! Usually I get tunnel vision for bout 15 minutes when the sparkly things go away...then bam! the headache. No tunnel vision so far, so I guess it wasn't a migraine. I got ta quit stressin out!

BEEN HAVING HEADACHES REAL BAD TOO, FINALLY BROKE DOWN AND WENT TO THE DR. THEY DID AN MRI AND FOUND OUT THAT THE DISCS IN MY NECK ARE REAL BAD SO THEY ARE GIVING ME EPIDURALS HAVE HAD ONE NOW AND HAVE 2 MORE SCHEDULED, HURT LIKE HELL BUT I CAN TURN MY HEAD TO THE RIGHT AGAIN, HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DO THAT IN YEARS, NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO THE OTHER 2 BUT HOPEFULLY IT WILL HELP GIVE MY NECK MORE MOBILITY AND WILL GET RID OF THE HEADACHES. DOC, TOLD ME IF THE EPIDURALS DID NOT WORK THE ONLY THING LEFT WAS TO GIVE ME HIGH POWERED PAIN PILLS AND I COULD JUST BE STONED ALL THE TIME , WELL I AM HOPING I WON'T HAVE TO DO THAT, TOO BUSY TO BE STONED ALL THE TIME!

owl, I hope it works for you. You might want to try a chiropractor. They really do help.

THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR THOUGHTS, I HAVE TALKED TO A CHIROPACTOR AND THEY WON'T TOUCH ME CAUSE OF THE DAMAGE I HAVE IN MY DISCS IN MY NECK, I HOPE THESE EPIDURALS WORK CAUSE I REALLY DON'T LIKE TAKING ALOT OF PAIN MEDS, I HAVE TOO MUCH STUFF TO DO OTHER THAN SLEEP!

Owl, what an appropriate name. Though I don't think you should be able to turn your head as an owl can, I do think you should be able to move it quite a bit. I will picture you being able to move with low amount to no chemicals. We need you awake!
I do think there is a bit of sympathy headache going on here... and we all need to knock it off!!! Accept that the world is a wacky place, change what is possible, breathe and move on. I certainly need to do that!
