“My head is spinning round and round”, “I can’t
concentrate on my work due to this headache”, “My headache keeps me down
all day long”, “Get me some tea please this headache is killing me”. We
hear just things from people on regular basis. Headaches have become a
common problem that makes people uncomfortable to perform daily chores.
A headache should not be a part of your daily life. There can be several
factors that can cause headache. Let’s learn about them in detail:
|
Wearing Wrong Shoes
You must be wearing uncomfortable shoes in your regular routine. That
could be causing a misalignment in your spine, therefore that tension in
your neck. Don’t wear tighter or uncomfortable shoes. Ladies should
refrain from wearing high heels for longer period of time. Comfortable
flats and sandals should be preferred. |
|
Carrying Heavy Bag
Another reason for your headache could be that you are carrying some
heavy bag on your routine. For instance, some people might carry
laptops, piles of books etc that again can cause shoulder pain and
misalignment in your spine. |
|
Sleeping with the Wrong pillow
Some people use hard pillows or more than one pillow that’s causing that
neck spasm first thing in the morning creating the headache. Always use
comfortable soft pillow that can relax your head properly while
sleeping. |
|
Clenching Your Jaws
Some people are unconsciously clenches their jaws while sleeping. Sleep
with free and relaxed mind. Try not to tighten your jaws unnecessarily
while awake. |
|
Anxiety
Stress can take a toll on you. Tension-type headache is the most
commonly-occurring headache worldwide, affecting up to 70% of some
populations. The affected victims feel pressure pain in part or entire
head, and may be associated with neck pain or tightness. Free your mind
from all sorts of tensions and mental fatigue to get a relief from
headache.

Glare
Brightness from your computer screen, sunlight or overhead lights can
make things painful. Turn it down and try adding a desk lamp.
|
|
Noise
It’s not just loud, repetitive sounds. Even lower level on continuous
noise can hurt. Calming music and headphones may help.
|
|
Eating & Sleeping Patterns
Eat when you’re hungry. Sleep enough (not too much or too little), and
don’t sleep in an odd position in a cold room – it can make your muscles
spasm. |
|
Physical Activity
Take it easy in the gym. Pushing too hard can result in an exertional
headache from the swelling of blood vessels in your head, neck and
scalp.

What Should We Do To Overcome Headache?
Relieving Headache naturally is cost effective and more likely to reduce
tension overtime.
A simple natural way to relief your headache is find firm pressure
between your index and thumb finger. Try and get that fleshy area and go
as close as you can to the bone for 10-15 seconds. That’s going to
release the pressure from your head.
Another trigger point is applying pressure with your index fingers at
the top of your nose. That self healing trigger point will help release
the pain and muscle spasm in the local area. |
