Home Remedies For Headache and Migraine

Try a cold pack wrapped in a couple layers of towel on your neck. One of my favourites is putting your hands in hot water, which seems to pull the pressure out of your head. It's also a good excuse to do the dishes before your headache gets much worse! :-)

Have someone kneed across your shoulders and the back of the neck. Next, have them press on the base of your skull with their fingers, and slowly release.

Physical exercise can help even after a headache begins. Take a brisk, ten minute walk in the fresh air. Both the air and the exercise will help to get the blood flowing and should help ease the headache pain.

Massage. Various headache home remedies suggest massaging the muscles at the back of the neck, the temples or the forehead. One unusual suggestion is to rub the web of skin between forefinger and thumb with ice. Surprisingly, this odd suggestion is one of the home remedies for headache that is supported by research. ]

Other common herbal home remedies for headaches rely on aromatherapy and inhalation. Among the various herbs and essential oils that are commonly used headache home remedies are lavender, peppermint, sage, chammomile and rose.

Avoid chocolate, aged cheese, red wine, citrus fruits. These foods all contain tyramine or other histamines which have been shown to induce migraines in people with food sensitivities.

Apply a paste of freshly ground clay or freshly ground sandalwood to the forehead, let dry, rub off by hand and wash.
When not suffering from a cold, drink a teaspoon of honey in a glass of warm water or fill the stomach completely with water.

We Recommend having Brahmi Capsules daily to relieve Stress and Headaches
