do you mean headaches? Those can be caused by a variety of things, what I've found in my practice among the most common causes are: stress, caffeine, dehydration and nutritional deficiencies (this is the biggest one). Also if you have a history of using a lot of drugs, then that may be a cause of headaches as your liver could still be struggling to detoxify all that stuff. 

It depends on what causes the pain: 

• If it is inflammation, than some of the natural eicosanoid blockers are: turmeric, ginger, Boswellia, white willow bark of frankincense
• If the pain is caused by muscular tension you may look into magnesium glycinate supplementation, start with 200mg per day and up it to 400mg max. If you get a bit light-headed, reduce the dose. 

But these may only be managing the symptoms and the cause may be somewhere else 

Other than that look into: being well hydrated, reducing your stress, eating enough, avoiding artificial sweeteners, avoiding chemicals in food, reducing stimulants, being more active

Thank you man? Great advices! I do apply most of those things. But I do think its caused because of some mental problem rather than something physical.

Chronic tension headaches most probably has to do with inflammation coming from inflammatory foods in your diet. I would suggest curcumin from tumeric but make sure to be getting at least 1000mg of curcumin, then a good quality omega 3 supplement of at least 1-2grams of dha/epa (sardines are the best natural source of dha/epa and they're cheap). Both of these should really reduce your body's inflammation which is also causing inflammation in your brain and therefore your chronic tension headache. Im not a pro but these have helped me a lot.

Might be, if you ae experiencing a lot of stress & tension your muscles can get locked by that as well and that will cause headache but from my experience a lot of psychological distress can be caused by certain things missing in the diet so definitely address this on all fronts

Good luck!
