Headache

Headaches are frequent and mostly harmless – but not always: with a sudden, most violent headache, headache with fever and a stiff neck, paralysis, speech or sight disturbances or after an accident, call the emergency number at once (112 in the EU, or your local emergency number). At the Kyborg Institute we additionally read headaches on a symbolic level as a sign of tension or “blockage”.

Our reading: tension and blockage

In our reading, headache arises when much is “in the head” at the same time and intellect and feeling contradict each other. Such images invite self-perception.

Relaxation that can do good

With a feeling of tension, calm, touch and relaxation often do good – such as gently covering the forehead with the hand, breathing calmly or briefly closing the eyes. Enough water, fresh air and a moderate handling of alcohol and salty food often do good too.
