   There are 13 major points behind the neck. They are

   One at the joint between the occiput and the neck in centre
   Three of them one inches apart at the place where the cranium joins the neck (behind the head) on the left side.
   Three of them one inches apart at the place where the cranium Joins the neck (behind the head) on the right side.
   Another three each of them perpendicular and parrelel to the neck (behind the neck) on both sides of the virtebral colomn passing through the neck.

   Press all these points very midly and delicately for two minutes each or less. There will be pain on these points. Mild and careful pressure will remove the pain and the headache or migraine will also go away. Also massage the two shoulders which will be stiff. There are few points on them also which can relieve the head ache.

   Few chances of migrain:

   1. Problems with Cervical /Spine/Spondylosis and the like.
   2. Stress on spine.
   3. Posture problem or continued sitting on computer etc for a very long time in awkward posture.
   4. Acidity/liver/stomach origin.
   5. Sinus/Eye origin.
   6. Serious reasons in the head itself.
   7. Alcohol/Tea/Coffee/Drugs (withdrawal symptoms)
   8. Associated with other major or minor illness of the body.
   9. Neurological/Congestive.
   10. High or Low blood pressure.
   11. Other reasons like associated with the exposure to Sun/exposure to cold wind etc.
   12. Gastric.

   For migraines due to Sinus press the finger tips of all fingers. Use Allium Cepa 30 three doses a day for one day followed by Natrum Mur 200 one dose a day for three days.

   For Acidity use Nux Vomica 30 three doses a day for one day followed by Arsenic Album 30 three doses a day for one day.

   For headache due to indigestion in particular of Oil/Ghee, use Pulsatilla 30 three doses a day for one and repeat whenever necessary. Do not use pulsatilla in females during menstruation.

   Fore headache from eye sight. Check with the doctor and wear appropriate glasses first. Then press on the orbit of the eyes very mildly and carefully with the tip of the fingers in clockwise and anticlockwise direction. Pinch the eyebrows from centre towards the end carefully few times. Press on both sides of the eyes and at the centre of the eyebrows (if centre of eyebrows invoke nausea then stop doing that.)

   For Gastric headaches. May have to use medicines according to symptoms. Carbo Veg., Natrum Phos, Arsenicum Album, Argentum Nitricum, Lycopodium, and many other medicines have to be checked according to symptoms.

   For continued sitting on computer. Use one dose of Rhus Tox 1M (two globules) once in a week.

   For spondylosis with nausea while travelling in bus and sun allergy on face :
   1 dose of Rhus Tox 1 M (2 globules) to start with. Next day onwards use Cocculus Indicus 30 three times a day for three days ( one dose is three globules to five globules).

   For Liver origin : Use Chionanthus Q for a long time three times a day 5 drops in one ounce of water. This will help in breaking the habit of periodical all kinds of headaches.

   For head : According to symptoms and under doctors supervision.

   For alcohol/Tea etc.etc. Use 1 single dose of Nux Vomica 30, if it does not relieve within few hours, use Sulphur 30 one single dose.

   Use accupressure on the hands on points indicated for stomach, sinus, brain nerves, pituitary glands, penial glands, throat, napes of neck, vertebrae, constipation, liver etc. If the points are not known, generally press on all parts on the front side of the palm/soles of feet and wherever pain is felt, keep pressing for maximum of two minutes a day. Pressing should be done gently and not to damage any nerves or organs. Press only upto the point where pain is registered, in other words do not press to give pain to the patient. Press the centre of both hands and feet at the reflex point of kidney to activate the kidney to remove the toxins accumulated.
