Migraine Remedies?

Question

Today I got what has been the absolute worst migraine I've ever had. I can't eat to take Motrin because it's making me nauseous but I also feel weak and I'm exhausted. Does anyone know any home remedies for migraines? Usually I just sleep them off but if I sleep now I won't sleep tonight and I have to get up at seven for work. Any suggestions? Thanks ladies!

Answer

Peppermint oil - sometimes called 'Tiger Oil' put it on 5 acupunctur spots at your head - temple+Middle of your forehead hairline+Neck+ highest point of your head.

Answer

Get a large bucket full of very warm to hot water, set on floor in front of you,put feet in and lean forward and put hands in as well withal cold compress on the back of your neck. The temperature differences pull the pounding blood away from your head and relieve tension. You can also put the essential oils some others have talked about here in the water so you can inhale them and absorb them through the bottoms of your feet. =) gl

Answer

I have a chronic migraine condition and what REALLY worked for me was topamax prescribed by my doctor but you should not be on it if ttc so I have not taken it in the 17 months of ttc so I had to find some alternatives and I have found peppermint works the best!  Doterra is the brand I use, they sell all sorts of oils for all sorts of stuff!

Answer

BC powder helps a looooooot! Tastes gross but it does the trick. It's aspirin so make sure you're not allergic to it. I suffer from terrible cluster migraines and also take magnesium to help keep them away.

You can also rub peppermint or eucalyptus oil on your temples! Also try vapor rub.

Answer

There's also PastTense by doTERRA. I ordered this on Amazon so I didn't have to pay the membership fee with the doTERRA site.

Answer

Where could I get it? I live in a little town so it's kinda hard to find stuff like that.

Answer

I second the Peppermint Oil! I use it and it helps a lot. I went to a headache class with Kaiser about a year ago and it was recommended there. You can put the oil on directly to where you're hurting, put some up your nose and sniff (sounds silly, but it's great, and even put some in boiling water and inhale the steam.
