Question by meg [incognito combstache]: What are some natural remedies for migraines?
I’m starting to get my dad’s migraines, which really sucks. He tells me to take migraine pills because they help him, but I don’t really like to take medication unless I really have to. Are there any effective natural methods for relieving migraines?
I know the difference between a migraine and a headache, and they’re definitely migraines. And I know they’re not contagious, they’re genetic.

Meg: try this natural migraine treatment:
The medicines prescribed by the doctors are devised only to keep the pain in check. It does not prevent a recurrence of another episode. Further, it creates a dependence on drugs that are very harmful in a long term. Natural treatment usually involves a strict discipline that need to be followed for a period of time which will result in complete prevention of migraine recurrence.
Here are some of the tips that can be followed to keep the pain at check:
1. Breathing Exercise
Breathing regulates the flow of blood and hence the oxygen supply to the brain and head region. Breathe slowly and deep so that you can focus away from the pain.
2. Head/Eye Massage
Gently massage your forehead with your fingers. Massage the acupressure points around the eye. It can offer a great relief from pain. Gently apply mild pressure and run your forefinger around the cavity of the eye.
3. Aromatherapy
Add a few teaspoons of essential oils of a preferable aroma to hot water in a bowl and take in the steam.
4. Hot and Cold Treatment
Take a towel and dip it in hot water. Gently rub and massage the painful areas with the towel. Keep the temperature of the towel to a level that feels comfortable. Some people prefer Cold water or ice cubes instead of hot water or steam. Find out what works best for you to bring you relief.
5. Relaxation Music
Choose mild instrumental music of your preference and listen to it. Also, guided relaxation tapes with a good music in the background could be used.

they’re not contagious. both of you have nerve interference. see an hio method chiropractor.
Ginger tea is probably the easiest to get. It is said to be very effective against migraines.
Other home remedies are feverfew tea, kava tea and chamomile tea.
Lavender Essential Oil is renowned for its medicinal properties and especially good in combating migraineheadaches.
If you feel a migraineheadache coming on, just place a single drop of pure, undiluted lavender oil on each temple or behind each ear. You can also put 2 or 3 drops of undiluted lavender oil on a cushion pillow if you plan to lie down.
Hope this helps
If you had a migraine you would stop worrying about a few pills. There is a very very big difference between a migraine and a head ache.
for a head ache, sleep rest none water fluids, fruit juice or squash.
