Essential oils can offer big-time relief for pain, including relief from stress/tension headaches and migraines. Here are the top five essential oils to help you kick that head pain to the curb while avoiding any potential side effects of over-the-counter medications.
Peppermint
- Analgesic (pain relieving), anti-inflammatory, anti-parasitic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, astringent, expectorant, stimulant.
- Good for arthritic pain, asthma, back pain, bronchitis, colds and flu, colic, congestion, depression, diarrhea, fever, headaches, indigestion, insect bites, menstrual problems, migraines, motion sickness, nausea and skin disorders.
- Blend 1 drop each peppermint, lavender and frankincense or marjoram in a teaspoon or carrier oil or lotion. Rub into the back of your neck and temples, avoiding the eye area.
Lavender
- Analgesic, antibiotic, antidepressant, antiinflammatory, antiseptic, diuretic, disinfectant and sedative.
- Good for acne, arthritic pain, asthma, bronchitis, burns, colds and flu, cuts, wounds and depression.
- For tension headaches, rub 1 drop of lavender into the bottom of each foot for systemic stress relief.
Frankincense
- Analgesic, antidepressant, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, astringent, anti-cancerous, diuretic and sedative, oxygenates the brain and circulatory system.
- Good for asthma, bronchitis, cuts and wounds, dermatitis, depression, headache, indigestion, skin disorders, sore throat and stomach ache. (Also reported to inhibit cancer cell growth.)
- For migraines, if you have organic frankincense, put a drop under your tongue – it doesn't taste as bad as you might think, and really helps. You can also put a drop of peppermint on your stomach to help with the nausea.
Marjoram
- Analgesic, antibacterial, antibiotic, antifungal, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antispasmodic, anticancerous, antiviral, mood lifter, disinfectant, expectorant, sedative and stimulant.
- Good for arthritic pain, asthma, anxiety, back pain, bronchitis, bruises, colds and flu, constipation, cuts and wounds, headaches, hypertension, indigestion, insomnia, menstrual problems, migraines, sprains, stomach ache and stress.
- Good for tension headaches and migraines, especially when blended with frankincense and peppermint or lavender. Add 1 drop of each to a teaspoon or carrier oil or lotion. Rub into the back of your neck and temples, avoiding the eye area.
Wintergreen
- Analgesic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, astringent, stimulant.
- Pain relief even to bones, arthritic pain, headaches, joint pain and skin disorders.
- Use instead of peppermint, and make sure to keep away from your eyes – it stings if you get too close. Also make sure you dilute properly – it's strong!
