Headaches are often caused by mild dehydration. Try drinking a lot of water. Accupressure can also help. I've included a link in the source at the bottom. You can do much of accupressure by yourself. Check it out!

While not the fastest (or tastiest), the best way to sooth a headache is to increase blood flow. You take an alka seltzer tablet (which will open your arteries) and then take vitamin C, which will help ablate any cellular damage caused by oxygen deprivation in the areas affected by restricted blood flow.

Ice the back of your neck. This slows the blood flow to your brain, eliminating headache. Brrr.

A cold compress (flannel soaked in cold water) to the forehead or temples, or an ice-pack placed on the forehead or temples.

If you rub your temples slightly it helps ease my headaches.. Not too hard and not too lightly.. Rub them in a circular motion for about a min

Have someone massage your head or do it yourself if you have to.
