Treating the Tension Headache
As the cause of tension headaches is stress, logically the best way to eliminate them is to eliminate the underlying stress. Resting for an hour in a dimly lit room with soft music often brings relief. Taking a hot shower, or if time permits, a leisurely bath, helps to relax the tense muscles that often accompany tension headaches. Exercise is another often overlooked way to control tension headaches. A walk in the fresh air for 30 minutes to an hour helps improve blood flow as well as clearing the mind. Stay away from noise and traffic fumes as these will aggravate your headache. Over the counter medications bring relief but often result in a drowsy feeling and according to some studies, may bring about a rebound headache.
