Ok real simple, if you have a headache tickle the skin on the back of your ear. Try both ears but I think the best will be to tickle or stimulate the ear opposite to the side of your headache. Where I am going with this is the stimulation of the vegus nerve. There are vegus stimulators implanted for the use in sever epilepsy which have been shown to reduce headaches also. So even if you suffer from epilepsy tickeling or stimulating the skin behind the ear may in fact stop that seizure or reduce it. Even possibly keep it from turning in to a full blown grand mal. I would say this is worth trying and with your input I think we may be on to something. I also suspect this to help headaches caused by trigeminal neuralgia. Seems to simple you say... well lets prove it wrong. Maybe a feather would work better? Its really up to you but the chances are someone out there has a head ache right now and when you have a head ache anything is worth trying. Try this out and get back with me.

I have recently found a link between the vegus nerve and the nerves that are connected to the skin behind your ear. I have also found a link between that and the trigeminal nerve. For your info trigeminal neuralgia is the most painful disorder or condition known to mand kind. (headaches) or sharp shooting stabbing pain.

1. When is the last time you had a headache? Couple of years (regular one) 2. What did you take for your headache? Advil 3. When is the last time you had a hangover headache? About a week ago 4. What worked for this headache? Time 5. What doesn't work at all for your headaches? Banging my head against a wall 6. Do you get dull headaches or throbbing headaches? I usually do not ever get headaches. When I do (regular ones) they are usually dull. A hot bath or real good massage works wonders. A chiropractor may help too to get you back in working order!

Much pain is from muscles below is an example of what may help (based on headaches).
Begin with a couple swigs of molasses or a couple of bananas daily - magnesium (which regulates many things in the body) and potassium (a needed building block for muscles).
Drink at least 1/2 gallons of water per day. Running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil is the analogy the head of neurology at UCDavis told my husband about 10 years ago.

Now to the cause - muscles - your back, neck shoulders and head have tender spots. They are knots in the fibers of the muscles called trigger points. It makes the muscles tight which makes them press on nerves and other things causing the pain.

The cure - start with a professional massage, you will also want to go back over any place you can get to 6-12 times per session up to 6 times per day rubbing (or lightly scratching on your head) every where that is tender until the knots go away. The place where the skull connects to the spine press up under the edge of the skull (to get to those muscles).

For more information read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies. It teaches what to do and where the pain comes from.

Try this one. Stick your left big toe in your mouth and wiggle your other toes for about 45 minutes. The pain will disappear! It has to do with the bogus nerve that runs from your neck to your big toe.

Very nice. Why don't you learn acupuncture? You will understand what you are doing. You can be the best healer.
