Natural Migraine Cures and Prevention
Are you suffering from migraine just like me? Do you also feel that persistent throbbing and pulsating headache until it turns into an excruciating pain? Afterwards, you feel so confused, helpless and so tired because everything you do just hurts that breathing, walking and even thinking hurts.
Not knowing when and where it will attack is exasperating and sometimes embarrassing that you wish there would be natural migraine cures and prevention you can do or follow so that you can get home before it worsens.
There are migraine medications or painkillers you can take right away to relieve you but these medications do not have an immediate effect and usually takes several minutes before relief would come.
Most of the time when you take these medications you do get relief from the pain but you are "out dead" for hours not knowing what happened for the past hours or days.
There are natural remedies which can help your relieve or prevent migraine faster and easier which you can do in conjunction with your prescription medications.
1.
Relax your breathing.
Due to the anticipated pain, a migraine attack makes you anxious and might bring about a panic attack as well which will only worsen your condition.
This feeling of anxiety and panic will increase your heart rate and make you feel as if you are choking and your breathing is labored.
If you are feeling an attack is about to come when you are outside your home or office, do not panic and go to a cool place preferably where there is very little light or just take a seat in a shaded area and cover your eyes (putting on sunglasses will do).
You need to relax your breathing so as not to aggravate your situation.
Initially, take a long deep breath slowly and exhale slowly.
Do this for 4 to 5 times more but you need to concentrate on your lungs filling up with air when you inhale and again as air is leaving your lungs when you exhale.
By the time you reach the 4th turn you feel that your breathing has relaxed and even your heart rate has calmed and slowed down.
You might also feel sleepy but if you are not yet at home you can take this time to move slowly and grab a cab and get home as fast as you can or you can let the migraine pass by staying where you are.
2.
Get into a dark room.
If your migraine is starting, get into a dark and quiet place.
If the migraine is in progress or has already started, take your medications before looking for a place to relax.
When you have found a place to lie down and relax, cover your eyes with a blindfold, towel, handkerchief or scarf but leave your eyes open.
Shutting your eyes will only increase the pain instead of getting a relief.
3.
Lavender oil.
Pure lavender oil is known for its medicinal properties and its soothing and calming scent is helpful when you are suffering from migraine.
When you feel an attack is coming place a drop of lavender oil on your temples, behind the ears and several drops on the pillow you will be using.
The scent of lavender when inhaled will help ease your migraine pain almost immediately.
Therapeutic diets, using lemon crust paste and drinking pure fresh grape juice are also some of natural migraine cures and prevention that you can do or use.
