Aroma Massage Oils

Dab a Drop of Aromatherapy on Your Wrists

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

    This information seems very useful!
    So would you reccomend different types of oil? Is there a way of massaging the oil
    so that it increases its potential?

    Thank you very much,

    Looking forward hearing from you!
