Migraines are more than just regular headaches caused due to less sleep, or stress. Someone who has migraine pains knows how difficult it can be to deal with them while they last as the pain is throbbing, and you are sensitive to light and sound.
When one experiences migraine pain, they are too desperate to try anything to stop the pain. Home remedies can actually come to your rescue even on migraine pains. Here are a few tried and tested remedies to cure a migraine headache
Lavender oil
According to a study, people who inhaled lavender oil experienced pain relief faster than other who inhaled a placebo when they were experiencing migraine pain. Lavender oil can be inhaled directly or applied on the temple after diluting and can be very effective in providing relief.
Acupressure
Acupressure is an ancient Asian medical treatment that uses pressure points in the body to release trapped energy that is believed to cause pain when it gets trapped. Acupressure is widely used around the world to treat heart problems, diabetes, and even a hangover. You can use acupressure to cure migraine pain also
Peppermint oil
peppermint oil is another oil that you can apply on your forehead to relieve migraine pain. The menthol in peppermint can help with light sensitivity also. It is even more effective than painkillers for migraine pain.
Ginger
Ginger is known to soothe a lot of problems like cold, cough, etc. and is also equally effective in curing migraine. According to a study, ginger powder has the same effect on the migraine as a pain killer, and with fewer side effects.
Yoga
Breathing exercises can release the tension in the temple that may trigger a migraine and also calm anxiety which is again a trigger for migraine headaches. Practising breathing exercises can really help in calming the headache also
