Will Water Cures Eliminate Headaches

With over 200 different types of headaches coming from potentially 10 different places, we are left with a basic question. Will water cures work to alleviate the pain? For most, the answer is yes.

Even when the pain is caused by tumors, people using water cures have told us that it helps eliminate headache pain.

The Medical Misconception

Medical science works on the presumption that only solutes regulate the body. Since we have access to water so freely, either from drinking or locked in molecules of food, it could not be the problem. Water regulation is not believed to affect disease in the body in otherwise healthy people or those who have access to and consume food and water on a regular basis.

Because of this thinking, instead of looking at the whole person, science looks for a particular substance that is responsible for the disease. Think of it as dis-ease.

The result is treatments that seek to eliminate symptoms rather than cure the problem.

Treatments often include analgesia. in extreme cases, psychotropic drugs are prescribed. These in the long run, according to scientific studies, do even more harm.
