I get headaches frequently and tylenol doesnt touch them. Other medications work, but upset my stomach. Does anyone know of a holistic alternative?
Answer #2
This isn't holistic, but my wife relies on bc powder and a pepsi :) That's probably not to good for your stomach either!
I like a cold pack on my head, and sometimes over my eyes.
Maybe some others will have more holistic answers though.
Answer #3
I have consulted my Doctor and he prescribed me medications that I do not want to take. I think there is probably another approach I would like to try, tramedol is not the cure all. I personally do not like to take medications which is why I am looking for an alternative approach. Unfortunately I work so rest isnt always an option. Thanks for your comments.

Deep Breathing is a good way to help headaches. Sit or lay down and try to relax. Put your hands on your abdomen–a couple of inches below your naval. Breath down into your abdomen, feeling your hands rise a little -as your tummy rises–then,as you exhale slowly, feel your abdomen go in. Say a phrase to yourself–such as "good" in—"pain" out–with each slow breath. Visualize the pain leaving your head. I use this for sleep–with "sleep" in and "relax" on the out breath.

Taking a rest is one alternative. It is not advisable to take medicine every time you have a headache. It's best to consult a doctor especially if the headache continues.
