Massage Oils Reduce Migraine Pain

If you feel a migraine coming on but you don’t want to swallow a whole load of expensive chemicals in your body, massage oils may be a natural alternative for providing quick relief. I’m grateful to Errilyn who shared this information with me and I hope that it helps you too.

Hi Sile

Hope you are well, just thought I’d pass on to you that I use massage oils on my neck when I have a headache whether it’s just a headache or one that is heading migraine way…

I use to use a blend of oils with Lavender & Rosemary which calmed it down a little however I ran out over a week ago & looked everywhere & couldn’t find any so grabbed some oils & made some up.

In the meantime Hubby went to a New Age Holistic store & found some it is based on Sweet Almond oil, apricot kernel oil, ylang ylang, Patchouli, sweet orange, Lavender, Sandalwood & Jasmine, at first I wasn’t sure about the mix But the first time used it within 15mins the headache had eased & within 1/2 it was gone, have used it a total of 4 times in the past week each time with the same results.

I was on medication (sandomigran) which I took 2 times a day however one of the side effects was rapid weight gain & after putting on 2 stone decided to ditch the medication ( gets very expensive when having to keep buying clothes etc in larger sizes all the time not to mention the health aspects).

Am much happier just using the oils & if I get a migraine so be it…
take care

The First Step to a Migraine-Free Year

Happy New Year!

Are you looking forward to 2010?

Let me ask you think: have you set your intention to get your migraines under control?

Have you decided to prioritise making your health the best it can be?

Is 2010 the year you manage to get rid of your migraines completely?

Without medicines?

For me real change started with a decision; the kind that fused body, heart and soul.  I decided I had had enough. I decided that I wanted to live my life without the extruciating pain of migraines. I decided I was going to *murder* my migraines… naturally.

But before you make any decision, just think:

What will your life look/feel like without migraines?

What would you do? What would you dare to do that you couldn’t before?

What effect would this have on your family and friends?

How much life are your migraines costing you now?

What would it be worth to you to have zapped your migraines out of your life?

What if others had done it naturally without expensive pills (and medical cat scans confirm that their brain is no different from yours)? What if it were possible for you to do the same?

Isn’t it worth considering to give it a go?

I did it and I *know* you can too, if you’d only take the first step.

So please take the first step:

Sign up for my top ten tips (top of this blog enter your name and email and a message a day will be sent to you). Read and take whatever advice of this blog and others on migraines you find useful and try them out.

But ultimately…

*Decide* that 2010 is the year, you get control over your migraines.

To Your Success!
