Do you suffer from chronic headaches? Are these headaches so tight feeling in your head that you want to explode? You might be suffering from tension headaches.

These are usually induced by stress. We get so worked up and so stressed out that we even cause our head to stress out. So how do you unwind this and make yourself feel better? You could try putting a cold rag on your head, but this is only a temporary relief.

Exercise will help reduce stress and give you a way to unwind and relax. Maybe read a book, but it is so hard to concentrate with your head throbbing. Does not sound like there is much of a home remedy for tension headaches, but let us not forget that people did not just start getting these.

Centuries ago people got tension headaches. There were no drugs to buy to relieve the pain and yet no one died from a tension headache. The modern day has us all believing that we need a pill or a shot to relieve pain and sickness.

Modern medicine is great, but sometime a pill is not needed. There are so many home remedies for illnesses that once we get past the skepticism we can start using them to cure even tension headaches.
