I think with a lot of questions you have to ask, “does this actually do anything?” This is one of those questions.

Some googling found some ‘health’ websites promoting it but nothing like a study of legitimate health source advocating for this.

Headaches will often go away with time and pain is a subjective experience. If you think you are doing something for pain then you are likely to say it is working a little, even though there is no real way to measure or even directly compare. But next time you might think, ‘this sucks, it’s worth a try!’ and do it again. Also, if you try a bunch of stuff and it goes away you might attribute the last thing you tried but really it was just time.
