Working people in particular complain of headaches, which are also referred to as tension headaches. Accompanying symptoms of headaches and migraines can include nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to noise, visual disturbances, and even depression. The location, intensity, and duration of the pain can vary greatly. From the perspective of holistic naturopathy, headaches or migraines are only a symptom that can have many causes.
