How to stop a headache in case of migraine

In case of migraine, the pain usually appears suddenly, paroxysmally in one side of the head.
In this case, you can do contrast baths for the hands in the first minutes of the attack (10 seconds in the cold water, then 10 seconds in the hot water). Repeat this procedure 3-4 times. After that, you need to drink a cup of green mint tea.

If the condition does not improve, acupressure with the use of the systemic points (LI 4, UB 60, SP 6, ST 36, LV 3) is performed in case of migrainous headaches. The manipulation of the auricular point Shen Men can also help.

You can find out which points are more effective for you only after you have used each of them during an attack. You will be able to pick 1-2 most effective systemic points and combine them with the local points that are used in case of pains in certain parts of the head. These points may often be the same.
