Home remedy for a headache

By Rachael Acklin

The best remedy for my headaches is a combination of over the counter medication and good old-fashioned common sense.

First, I take the recommended dosage of ibuprofen to help reduce the pain in my head. Then I retire to a dark, quiet room (pulling curtains or closing blinds, shutting off televisions or radios, and closing the door), lie down on my back on a flat comfortable surface, and place a cold wet cloth over my eyes and forehead. I make sure that my neck is supported with either a pillow or a rolled up towel, so that I can fully relax my arms, shoulders, and the rest of my body.

I wait at least ten to fifteen minutes like this before I try to get up and do anything else. Generally, this approach takes away a headache faster than anything else.
