A headache is not the most pleasant of feelings. Even more so when it strikes you at work or on the road, when you don’t have pills handy, or when you actually don’t want to take them until absolutely necessary.
Today Bright Side has a simple method for you to get rid of headaches, stress, nausea, and vomiting in just 30 seconds without any medications.
There are active spots on our body that can be massaged to relieve pains and aches of different natures. Such acupressure techniques are also helpful to get rid of headaches.
Relieve stress and vomiting
This point is located one finger lower than your hand pulse.
What should you do?
Use a finger from your other hand to press this point for 30 seconds. Use circular motions. You may feel a deep achy sensation, but it should not be painful. If you’ve done everything correctly, your stress and vomiting will soon dissipate.
...or try another pressure point
The point to press is situated on your palm between the thumb and index finger. Connect these fingers to find it — see the prominent muscle on your palm? That’s it.
What should you do?
Press on this point so that your thumb is on the back of your hand. Your index finger presses from below on the palm. Maintain the pressure for 30 seconds, then alternate your hands and do the same for the other hand for 30 seconds. If you’ve done everything correctly, your headache will soon dissipate.
Attention!
Pregnant women shouldn’t practice this technique as it may cause premature labor.
