5 sure-fire ways to beat Headache

In between juggling meetings and phone calls, your breakfast lies untouched and as you zoom through the day, it's unlikely you are going to keep your date with lunch. A nagging headache crops up, and while there's work to be done, your body doesn't care for excuses. Here's how to beat it, naturally.

1 Go relax: Worrying about deadlines won't help. Roll your shoulders up and down while slowly breathing in and out.

2 Just chill: Have access to the office fridge? Soak a hand towel in a bowl of ice cubes and place it over your forehead. Repeat till headache subsides.

3 Reflect on reflexology: Press the area between your left thumb and forefinger with your right thumb for about 10 seconds. Repeat with other hand. This one's known to work miracles.

4 Drink up: Some headaches are caused thanks to a drop in blood-sugar levels when you skip meals. Grab an apple or an orange and sip on some water at regular intervals. Besides ridding you of pain, it's a great way to keep fit.

5 Take a walk: Often, being restricted to a cramped cubicle can lead to a headache. Walk around the office, or step outside for a quick walk.
