with a CH and can fully agree into accepting the pain rather than run around like a chicken with it's head cut banging my head on the nearest post. It's best to completely let go, I called it giving in to the pain, fully relaxed and isolating the pain to an area, than concentrating on that area and making it smaller and smaller until it's gone. I also did things like fill the laundry tub up with cold water and ice cubes completely submerging my head. Can't say that eased the pain any quicker, matter of fact, the CH's lasted longer. Next step is to learn what parts of the country your CH's are less at and change your entire life style. Have to work with your CH's, not against them.
