Are there any tea varieties that are reputed to help with headache pain?

Any suggestions or informational sources would be appreciated.  |
I know that the effects of some medications, such as aspirin, are increased by the addition of caffeine, but I don't know if that holds true for migraine meds. Imperial Gunpowder tea, Keemun tea, and China Black all tend to be higher caffeine teas (not to mention tasting pretty damn good
) so perhaps may help. But for all I
really know, caffeine is contraindicated for migraine... Sorry.
