4Head for headaches

I just thought I'd share...

I often have headaches (stress related I think) and usually I take painkillers to deal with them. But this week I tried the product called 4Head, you might have seen it advertised, it's like a giant lipsalve for putting on your head. It feels all cool. I was rather skeptical and bought some regular painkillers at the same time as I wasn't that convinced it would work. But it was so good! My headache went without any tablets and it was pleasant to use. I'm definately going to use it again when I get a headache.

I found a picture incase it helps you know what I'm talking about. They sell it in pharmacies like Boots etc.

    how long does it take to work?

    and

    does it matter whereabouts the pain is?

    It was quite quick, much quicker than pills.

    It does say on it that you are meant to only use it on the forehead but I put a bit around the back of my head (near my hairline) as my headaches are more there than at the front.

    I love it. It's all menthol-y and lovely and cooling :heart:.

    I like it tooooo.

    For back-of-the-neck jobs I quite like those heat-up-in-the-microwave lavendar cushions.

    Enough of the hyphens already.

    Chinese Tiger Balm is the original topical application for headaches, applied at the temples.

    p.s. It's not made from tigers - it's the brand name. ;)
