Headaches can be very unnerving. I woke up this morning with a mild headache which refused to go. I thought it would subside after breakfast, but it didn't. Popping a painkiller was not an option. A good old trick that my mother always uses came to my rescue. While there are many natural remedies that will help you get rid of your headache, this trick is the quickest way to relieve yourself.
It's an acupressure technique - Massage the area between your index finger and thumb. Gently massage this space on both your hands with some mild pressure in circular motions for a minute, and wave goodbye to your headache.
Watch this video that will help you locate the thenar space on your hand.
