Hello, there are actually numerous ways to stop hiccups. One old and very efficient way is to subject the victim of Hiccups to sudden tension/thought. Like, suddenly scare him/her, do something which will divert his/her attention completely and also surprise and baffle the victim altogether. This is a very efficient way which really works even though it looks hilarious. I myself personally try this many times and most of the times it worked. This shows that it indeed works.
Coming to the scientific part of this problem, Hiccups are merely an indication of unavailability of enough water in the body. Sometimes, we get too dehydrated and we get Hiccups right when we put something in our mouth to eat. This is totally natural and can be addressed by drinking adequate water when these happen. Also drink water frequently all over the day to avoid facing frequent Hiccups. It is merely an indication that there is lack of water in the body.
Also, another highly effective and logical method is that of acupressure. This deals with the process of applying pressure on a parts of your palm. To avoid hiccups, I have learnt that one has to apply pressure between the thumb and the index fingers on one of the palms. The pressure has to be applied on the web span between the thumb and the index finger.

Hiccups generally occur when some sort of irritation occurs to the pharynx or oesophagus. Such as in the case of eating chilli, hiccups start. It is advisable to drink lots of water. Scaring or giving any surprise to the person may also stop hiccups sometimes

Hiccups are majorly caused by 2 reasons.
1. Lack of water content in body.
2. Abnormal/misplaced breathing events.
The first and foremost remedy for Hiccups is to drink plenty of water.
If the Hiccups are very strong and abnormally repeating, then it may be because of Breathing. In that case you should be calm, look at the cieling, open your mouth and take a deep breath. After that sit, straight with ur neck and head in line with your back. Again Repeat the deep breathing 5 to 10 times.

When the inflow of air is disturbed, then hiccups occur. Generally, drinking water helps to stop and avoid hiccups. But, if it occurs continuously, then take a deep breath and release the air. Probably, this will help to avoid the hiccups.

I found solutions to hiccups naturally without consulting any doctor or anybody else.
Once hiccups start, take a deep breath immediately and hold it as long as you can. Once you will release your breath, your hiccups will be gone.
I do not know what happens, but yes, it has always helped me and also to those whom i have told. I am really sensitive to chilly and any chilly or spicy things causes immediate hiccups problem to me and at that moment i use this technique.
Try it and do reply about the outcome.
Regards
Manoj

Hiccups are due to lack of water content in body. So There are 3 ways to resolve it.
1) Drink 2-3 glasses of water
2) Even if there is lack of oxygen then, we will have hiccups so fruit full method is to have one full breath as much as we can between 2 hiccups.And continue this for 4-5 times and this will solve the issue.
3) Even after drinking water, If somebody have continuous hiccups then if you make them little tensed by scolding them, then in that tension and pressure hiccups will go away.

To get rid of hiccups in a natural way:
- drink or sip very little water at a time, just like how we sip coffee or tea. And this helps in clearing as well as hydrating the throat region and thus one can get rid of hiccups. Do not drink water fast but drink slowly or sip water.
- as per an age old belief, which sometimes works as well, threatening or frightening the person all of a sudden and he / she should be aware of the fact that he / she is being frightened to get rid of the hiccups. And at times this works. But if the persons knows that he/ she is being frightened to get rid of the hiccups then such a fright or threat will not be effective.

The main reason for getting hiccups is because of less amount of water in your body and because of that the position of your neck drys out. So the simplest way to stop the hiccups is to drink a lot of water at a time and after sometime the hiccups will stop.
