She has always thought if you can't do it right don't do it at all or even try! One thing I found that works at least for awhile is a headache remedy I make for her, works best if done in a darkened room, but would at least help her through the school day. (couldn't go through the nurse, whose remedy for migraines was tums!). It is a mixture of Lavender, Geranium, Rosewood and Peppermint EO's in Almond oil. My "other" daughter used the same thing for her asthma. DD would rub it into her temples and then cup her hands over her mouth and nose and breath deeply. It would help her relax. The "other" daughter would just put it on her hands and breath deeply, stopped an asthma attack a few times.

Guest guest Report post Posted June 30, 2006 Dear Tori, One more suggestion that helped to me and my friends regarding headache. Of course we changed a diet, did cleanse, but in case that you still feel tired move your bed to another corner of your room. Sometimes it makes a BIIIIIG difference. Friend of mine did total body cleanse and was totally fine for 2 years, and all of sudden she started to feel tired, without energy and with severe back pain and headache. We tried to find the cause but she didn't change anything. She still eats healthy. And during the conversation I mentioned that she should try to move her bed. She said : I moved the bed two months ago. BINGO. She went home and put bed back and wake up next morning totally fine. So it is worth to try.

Guest guest Report post Posted April 5, 2007 Dear Tim: I had headaches all my life, mostly migraines, until I began taking fish oil last year. I had tried vitamin B2, feverfew, 5-HTP, magnesium, ginger, and a few other things I can't remember right now. The fish oil was the first thing I had tried that made a significant difference and it seemed too good to be true. I got relief at the level of 12 capsules per day (with 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DPA per capsule), but I'm sure individual needs may differ. Hope this helps.

A couple years ago I cut my dose to 1 pill instead of 2, but I still need it each morning upon waking or a worse headache will come. Do you have any recommendations for healing headaches holistically? I don't want to be a slave to the caffine and other stuff in excedrin anymore.

Guest guest Report post Posted November 25, 2007 It sounds to me like you are having rebound headaches. Most of the common headache remedies can cause rebound. That's where if you don't take some of the remedy you'll get a headache because your body is demanding more medicine. Right now I'm having rebound headaches from taking " Cafergot " a combination of caffeine and ergotamine both vasso constructors for aborting migraine headaches. The only way I know to get off of it (the Cafergot) is to cut down little by little until you are not taking any. But the down side of that is constant headaches during the process and in my case developing into a full blown migraine. I'm in total fear of getting a full blown migraine so I avoid trying to get off of the cafergot. Anyone that has migraine knows what I'm talking about, you'll do almost anything to avoid getting one. It's a terrible situation. Jack Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted November 26, 2007 Most classic migraine headaches are caused by dehydration, which is why Megahydrate cures them. Vigorous exercise also generally works... sounds crazy, but does. It opens up the blood vessels which are apparently constricted due to dehydration. Common headaches can be similar in cause & relief.

Dear Melanie, Soy is is NOT a health food, except in fermented form in small quantities. Many people are allergic to it as well. Yes, it could be the soy. But you can easily do your own science here: stop using dairy alternatives and see what happens. Please put Brain Tumour and Una de Gato into Google and see wat comes up. The best, most powerful form of this amazing herb is the one from Amazon Herb Company. I used to do this as a business, but the Canadian government made things too hard so this is NOT a commercial. I just still really believe in this company and use some of their products. This link now goes to the site of my friend Anna. http://wldhealing.net Also: can't you do away with sweeteners altogether?

Guest guest Report post Posted December 17, 2008 Melani: While some people do have negative reactions to soy, you also gave up Splenda at the same time. This could very well be causing a detox/withdrawal reaction, of which one of the signs is headache. It certainly would not do any harm to give up the soy and use rice milk and almond milk instead. I would also look at applying Valor as well as Deep Relief, Peppermint, or Lavender to assist with the pain. Here's to a speedy recovery.

Guest guest Report post Posted December 18, 2008 In many cases the Vanilla is not real, but artificial and so detrimental to your health as it is pure starch plus sugar. In reference to soy be careful just in case it's GE. Some fruits such as banana, persimmon, fig, date, etc. are creamy and sweet and you can use them in different combinations and smoothies. To eat different kind of nuts is also very good. You even can blend them with some fruits.

Guest guest Report post Posted December 24, 2008 Melani, do you have cold feet? are your lips pale? muscles on your arms are not firm? lower body temperature, check your temp beneath your tongue, likely below 98deg F. these are body conditions that promotes tumor, most of the cases are likely lack of blood flow, in fact you should be taking more meat, especially lamb and beef which provides you with more energy to help rebuild your body temp, drink sweet, add a little bit salt even on sweet drinks, eat salty, if you do so, it will help to rebuild your body and eleminate conditions for tumor so will also control the growth of tumor. your headaches came from getting better conditions for tumor so could be its growing. --- 2008å¹´12月17æ—¥ 星期三,Melani <massages_by_melanie 寫é“﹕ 寄件人: Melani <massages_by_melanie 主題: Headaches 收件人: 日期: 2008 12 17 星期三 ä¸‹åˆ 1:03 After in depth research I decided to change my WOE (way of eating) so that I can help my body heal itself from the brain tumor that I have.

The headaches are getting worse and when I was at the Oncologist Monday and told her, she said that it wasn't due to the tumor. Nothing has changed where the tumor is concerned. I appreciate your input! Melani (the one positive is that I've lost 13 pounds but it's not worth having headaches over) 香港æä¾›ç¶²ä¸Šå®‰å…¨æ”»ç•¥ï¼Œæ•™ä½ å¦‚ä½•é˜²ç¯„é»‘å®¢! è«‹å‰å¾€ http://hk.promo./security/ 了解更多!

Guest guest Report post Posted February 22, 2009 Soak 4 dates or 10 raisins overnight, in a cup of water. Morning after brushing teeth, take the dates/raisins along with water. Next, Take two cups water, add 1/2 tsp dried ginger powder, slow boil till 1 cup remains. when lukewarm, add 1/2 lemon juice, 1 tsp honey or 20 gram jaggery. when jaggery/honey dissolves, drink this. Coriander seeds, cumeen seeds and fennel seeds, take each 1/2 tsp, coarse gring them in kitchen blender and let them be soaked in a glass of water for 2 hours. Drink this water at 10 am, 12 noon and 2 pm. Avoid hot, fried, spicy and salty food for few days. Go to bed early, walk on wet grass dew in the morning. Meeting a vaidya would always be better option. ________________ I get these headaches, pretty intense, the pain is specifically along the back right side of my head close to the neck ... during the last 3 days, i get as soon as wake up, stays for a few hours.

Guest guest Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Dear Harish Pain at posterior head and portion of neck as soon as wake up is suggestive of Cervical Spondilitis. It is better to consult doctor or vaidya. Check morning BP and do x-ray of Cervical spine.
