Hiccups are caused by muscle spasms in your Diaphragm. There are plenty of home remedies to stop them. All you have to do is find a way to allow your Diaphragm time to calm down. Holding your breath is the easiest....BTW, all those things saying to hold your breath then doing stuff, it is just something to occupy time til your diapragm is calmed. Generally, about 30 seconds is good enough.

place a teaspoon of granulated sugar on your tongue and let it dissolve. Don't swallow until it has dissolved. This treatment is the considered by doctors at the most effective for hiccups.

Do NOT hold your breath. Lay down if you can, but if not then Lean back in your chair, close your eyes, lay your hands on your chest , close your mouth and breath through your nose as normal and as shallow as you can, all the while concentrating on your next hick-up. you may get one ore two, then they will subside. relax for as long as you are able and when 3 minutes goes by without a hick...you Win!!

Just like accupuncture (with needles) you can do accupressure (without needles). On your bare foot or socked foot, press with thumb and forefinger between top & bottom of right foot, about the middle by the 'ball' of the foot.. you may have to move around to find it, but it works. If the right foot fails, then try left, but generally it is right foot.
