Suggest Treatment For Tension Headaches

I fequently have headaches that over the years that doctors have said were tension headaches. Sometimes I have a burning sensation also. At times regular ibuproben can help, at other times not and some times I get a burning sensation. I have never been to a neurologist regarding these as I have just always went with the diagnosis that they were tension headaches. I have never been diagnosed with allergies altho I do not like any thing with a heavy scent. I am tired of these headaches that interupt my day. Where do I go from here.
