i fill a bath with tepid water and lay in it with all the lights out but i don't get migranes i get cluster headaches once or twice a year.

also try taking your right hand and pinching behind the web between your left hands thumb and forefinger about an inch behind the web.

you will know it when you hit it because there is a pressure point/nerve bundle there and it hurts.

it's a fleshy spot close to where the bones meet. hold it for a min or two.

Moveyour head upside down and let blood rush to your head. Do that about 3 times and you should be good to go

'During an orgasm, the body releases both serotonin and endorphins. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter associated with mood, sexual desire, and even pain perception. [1] Endorphins are an opiate like chemical, which are proven to increase the body's threshold to pain. [2] Basically, the body's physical reaction to an orgasm is a painkiller, an instant, free, and safe cure for a migraine or headache.'

Increase magnesium intake and go easy on the caffeine.

As I've been getting migrains since I was about 6 or 7 I find it best to turn off all lights, turn the TV off have no music on don't play any games or read anything and take the strongest painkillers you can get and try and sleep.

Sleep or cold drinks with sugar might help

I've only had 1 migraine in my entire life and I thought I was going blind at first - I had completely blurred vision in one eye and slighly blurred vision in the other, coupled together with the other symptoms of migraines.
