Tic Remedies

Tics are so upsetting, especially if a child is suffering from them, that home remedies are tirelessly sought. Tics may disappear with no treatment, but can also become chronic. A magnesium deficiency, which can be treated with a supplement, may cure the tic. Homeopathic medicine is another safe, non-invasive alternative cure. Finally, dietary triggers, if found and eliminated, can also prevent the tics from occurring.
