    Herbal remedies such as willow bark, boswellia, and cherry can be very helpful for headaches.

    Rubbed over the forehead and temples (sides of your forehead), menthol containing creams or oils help relieve headaches (keep it out of your eyes).

    A physical therapy technique called "stretch and spray," which approximately 10% of physical therapists are familiar with, is also an excellent and pain free way to release your muscles and eliminate a tension headache (and help prevent future ones).

    A chiropractor is much more likely to be able to help than most physicians.
