Soak your feet in hot water – while putting an icepack on the back of your neck.  That can divert blood flow away from your head – reducing your head pain in about 15 minutes. That’s according to the book, “The Natural Physician’s Healing Therapies.” And you can cut your risk of getting a headache in the first place by soaking in a steamy bath for 20 minutes, four times a week. The hot water will improve your circulation by dilating blood vessels.
