For years I've had migraines off and on. The frequency seemed to increase after having a baby.
Last week my family was on vacation at the beach, when all of a sudden one started coming on. I started feeling the pain in my neck creeping up the back of my head and wrap around to my temples and my eyes. I started to feel nausea and I realized that I forgot my migraine medicine at home.
I laid down on the bed and my husband hung towels over the window to block out the lights because my eyes were so sensitive. As I complained to him about the pain and how I was so sad that I was going to have to miss out on dinner at the beach.
He asked me if I had an oil that would help. All of a sudden I remembered Peppermint Oil! I got some and rubbed it on the back on my neck on my brain stem I also rubbed it on my temples and took several deep sniffs of the bottle.
I laid back down in bed and within 20 min and began to feel total relief!
Thank God for these amazing products! I'm so thankful for that immediate relief and now I'm totally off migraine medicine!
