[China] Magic Massage to cure headache.

 So the information is quoted, again, from the greatest Chinese heal system book "从头到底谈养生" by Zhilin Chun and Ci Xiao.

I was suffering from an annoying headache this afternoon since I had a cup of coffee. Well, I love Coffee smell and taste, but I can never get along with it. :( Always something in my body will get wrong after one cup of coffee.) I had planned to take pain killer pills once I got back home. But then I remember my books talked about headache, Why not give it a try before pill. and it WORKS SO WELL. :)

I want to highlight the important sentences talking about why people get headache at first place from the book below.
It says:
无论哪种情况引起的头痛，均与循行于头部的经脉气血失调，气滞血瘀有关。因此刮拭寻找并疏通头部和头部对应的疼痛区域都可以缓解头痛的症状。

Let me try to translate it with my not great English here.

No matter what caused your headache, (due to mood or caught cold or other reasons) It is normally due to Blood Flow disorder/Meridian disorder around head. The life flow (Body Air and blood) get imbalanced and not flow smoothly around head would cause headache. Therefore scrap/massage certain point around head and other important Meridian point will relieve pain.

The most well known Chinese healing system saying goes: you will feel pain when your body flow is blocked. Once it flows smooth again, the pain will go. 通则不痛，通则不痛。 I believe in it so well!

So I tried two methods out of 3. It relieved my pain immediately.. and It gets very well 15 mins later. See details below:

The General way to relieve all kinds headache :
(I tried this one)
1. Use ox horn comb 牛角梳 (a traditional Chinese comb) as the tool. Actually you can use any tool which has a thin and smooth surface like this Comb in my picture.

---

2. Place the comb back on the front line of your hair, right above your top point of your ear with a 45 degree angle.  if you awesomely shaved all your hair, Place it at the temple line of your head ha. Press it with  semi-hard strength so you feel great. 
3.Move slowly from up to down and from front to back, so It move along the hair front line behind your ear till the end of comb reach the top of your neck, which is parallel to the lowest link point of your ear and your face. You would feel great pressing that point when you are suffering headache.. 
See pictures from the book and me below for instruction.

I feel better on the side which I massaged right away.. I did 5 times on each side. 
Then the book talks about 3 advanced scrap way for different headache cause reason. (I tried one and It magically healed my headache!!!)
