I get the hiccups really bad from spicy foods and also from drinking too many different alcohols in one night.
my trick (works every time I swear) is to find a quiet room and lay down with one hand on my upper abdomen putting a little pressure on my diaphragm and breathe in on even counts. in 1-2-3-4-5-6 and out 1-2-3-4-5-6.
if you can regulate the movement of your diaphragm you can stop the spasms. it usually only takes me 3-4 breaths.
...when I get hiccups, I just lay down and go to sleep; that always works for me. I think it's the relaxation part that is what works, like your slowing down and counting.
