According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, when we experience discomfort in our bodies, this is our body’s way of telling us that there is a blockage of blood and energy (“Qi”). Essentially, this pain is your body’s way of requesting you to do something and do what should be done so as to correct what’s causing this blockage. Ultimately, a headache is not different. Here in North America the “go-to” treatment for headaches and other discomfort is the medication cabinet. Here you’ll find an array of painkillers including: Tylenol (acetaminophen), Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) and Advil (ibuprofen) not to mention the more strong and side-effect prone prescription painkillers. However, ultimately popping a couple of Extra Strength Tylenol each four hours or thereabouts, isn’t really correcting anything. This is just covering up the symptom (pain) and not treating the cause, which might be as easy as say an unhealthy diet.
