Yesterday I had headache. Someone at office suggested Green Tea. I drank Green Tea at office and headache went away. This morning I had headache (from oversleep) and I drank Green Tea and headache went away. What is good for tense neck and shoulders. I tried stretching. I am trying to pay attention to my posture when I sit. Any suggestions? Any home remedies for day-to-day health annoyances?
I am sure there are lots of remedies. I would recommend sleeping without a pillow, drinking plenty of water (I like my water warm always) and rubbing a generous amount of Tiger Balm (this is my saviour, it is like a Universal cure for anything ) in the affected area and then warming the spot with a heat pillow. A good gentle massage. Posture is important which we all ignore.
neck pain or stiff neck - from my experience I can say is due to less intake of water. Drink few sips of plain water at room temperature every now and then and say bye bye to neck pain.
Yes, I am starting to think that the culprit is that I'm drinking less water nowadays. I used to drink 3 cups of milk-based coffee a day, but now I will replace two cups of coffee with water-based tea. That'll probably help to control appetite as well ;-) @ sureshmiyer - can you give a link to your short story, I'd love to read it
