Hiccups often occur when the diaphragm involuntarily spasms and doesn't relax. To help calm this reaction, consider practicing paced breathing exercises, which can encourage your diaphragm to settle. Additionally, massaging the phrenic nerve, located at the base of the neck where it enters the chest, can be beneficial. This nerve controls the diaphragm, and gentle stimulation might help alleviate the spasms. Integrating magnesium into your diet, a mineral known for helping muscle relaxation, along with other electrolytes, can also support the normal function of your diaphragm and reduce hiccup episodes.
