Get Rid of the Hiccups
How to get rid of hiccups is a question that has been asked since asking questions began. The number of crazy methods you can find out there trade Forex is literally endless; most of them are useless (massaging the back of your throat, eating sugar, scaring yourself), and some are even dangerous (e.g. breathing into a paper bag). I tried one trick after another until finally, I found something that actually works and, somehow, is nowhere to be found on the Internet.
Hurrying to my kitchen one day trying to get myself some relief, I decided enough was enough. I needed to bring this cure to the world. So, I made this website and put it online. Since then, I have expanded the site to include all sorts of general information (which you can find in the handy menu on the left). In addition, in my vast reading and researching, I occasionally find another cure that actually works. When I do, I add it here. I try my best not to include any nonsensical (scaring yourself) or impractical cures (how many people actually own chamomile oil?). Cures that are poorly rated are removed - simple as that. After you have tried a cure out, feel free to rate it and leave a comment!
I don't know why these cures work. My speculation would be that in their own ways they work to alter your breathing pattern, get more oxygen in your system, or stimulate your phrenic or vagus nerves in ways that get the job done. If anybody has any ideas on why they work or has another cure to submit, let me know at info@get-rid-of-hiccups.com. So, without further ado, here is my original (kind of) and patented (not really) way to get you over your hiccupping woes and one or two other methods as well. Give any of them a try, you won't be dissapointed :)
