FIRST THINGS FIRST: Pain is there for a reason; it tells us something is wrong. If your mom has been in pain like this then HERE is not the place to get the right answer, see a doctor (you should have seen that coming).

NOW: In the case of persistent headaches, study has shown that when we manage the pain on our own, say through the use of aspirin, our own pain management goes to sleep (so to say). Headaches can be reoccurring because of developing a dependency on aspirin. It may take a couple of weeks or as many as six weeks, but if the pain is not that bad it would be better to endure the pain. Your body will learn not to depend on medications and will start doing what it is designed to do, heal itself.

What do I think??? Mom should talk to a doctor. Any advice (from experience) I can give here is merely a case of what happened to me and how I fixed my problem. Your mother could have a more serious problem than my stupid dependency upon aspirin.

Se a DR. coz I'm not one.



Headaches are caused by tight neck muscles. The neck muscles go to the top of the head where they connect with muscles that go around the head. When the neck muscles are tight they pull on the head muscles and when they go into pain you have your headache. to get rid of the headache you have to free up your neck muscles and here's how to free them up:
Neck
Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your neck. Squeeze your thumb and fingers together and hold. Relax your body. When your fingers and thumb touch, about two minutes, slowly lower your head as far as you can, release the pressure but hold your neck lowered for another 30 seconds.
The body aches she is having are caused by tight back muscles. When the lower muscles are tight they can press into the nerves going to the hips to cause pains in them. Tight back muscles can press onto the nerves going to the stomach to cause the stomach pains. To get rid of these problems she has to free up her back muscles and here's how to do that:
Back:
(do from a sitting position)
Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder, fingers over the back and the palm in the front and firmly pull down on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. Then reverse your hand positions and do your right side. For both- for best results relax the body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.
