Headache and migraine afflicted me most of my life. I remember a day that many poor do not want to see someone or something has been done, but with an ice pack on his head, to minimize the pain. During my adolescence, because I have the responsibility for a lot less of me now, I usually choose the pack in bed and try to sleep off his intoxication. If this did not work, or I could not go to bed, I took some Advil. Those of you have suffered headaches, know that it is almost impossible to go beyondwith life, if one. There's no pretending to be a good feeling when you feel it is a 2 x 4 stuck in my head.
When I got married, and after further changes came into my life. Probably one of the biggest for me was a great improvement in my diet. Praise the Lord! Changes in diet led to less headaches, and almost without migraine. Although they are rare today, I still have headaches from time to time, especially when they are pregnant. I'm not completely off, if this thought,hormonal or because of other problems. Advil with out of the picture, thanks to its long-term negative impact, I needed something else, make the emergency assistance. I found this especially when pregnant with my second child. My first was only 8 months old when I got pregnant again, still need my attention, even if I do not like I could get my head from the pillow to hear. After extensive reading and research, I came across something simple, inexpensive and very effective, was: PeppermintEssential oil. Everything I do is rub the oil on the temples or wherever there is pain. This has been a lifesaver for me! I can not praise her enough effects! It provides a cooling sensation, like an ice pack, but keeps me mobile.
Now we have two adorable children and I regularly help my husband with our business partners. It 'been impossible for me to find time to sleep by the occasional headaches during our busy days. The essential oil of peppermint has exceeded the time for meand again. I still sleep at night with an ice pack, if I have a headache. In order to double the cooling power, calls for the oil and peppermint. This provides a huge amount of relief while I sleep almost always completely freed me from my headache the next morning. The only caution I have is, does not use too often during the day as my skin was numb, making it less effective.
Since almost always have a bottle with me wherever I go, Ishared my peppermint oil with many others to talk about them when they happen to have a headache. Every time I've been surprised and thanked me for such an effective remedy. Just a warning: be careful, avoid contact with eyes. As once happened to me, washed my eye with running water, eased the pain and burning.
Other uses:
About a month ago I had to do with the flu and fever. I always try to do everything and do better in a hurry, so I immediately startedRead what I could appeal against the fever. I read that clove essential oils can work wonders. Since I am not one of the clove oil on my hand, I tried half a dozen drops of essential oil of mint in a glass of water. It worked quickly to reduce fever and I felt better the next morning.
During our recent vacation in Florida, showed a rash on his legs. There were spots near my ankle and one on my thigh. At first, I decided to wait a couple of days,Hoping to make it clear by itself. Unfortunately they are not very well maintained, especially when it seems worse. Without my herbs in the area, I tried the peppermint essential oil rubbed on the rash twice a day or whenever you itch. Rectified within two days of the eruption. I'm so glad I tried!
Whenever we come from outside activities (work or play) and are very hot and dehydrated, drink a few drops of peppermint oil in a glass of water. It is refreshing andRejuvenation. It also helps if you drink it before going out on a hot day or before a hard training session, cool the body.
Essential oil of peppermint can also relief for heartburn, stomach problems, etc. Only a few drops added to water either hot or cold does the trick. And our favorite is the use of ice. My husband loves peppermint essential oil in our homemade ice cream. I just 5 or so drops to a pint of ice cream mixbefore I freeze it. It makes a great minty treat!
Note: Only therapeutic grade peppermint essential oil (such as Young Living brand) is suitable for internal use. Those with high blood pressure should use caution when using peppermint essential oil internally. Children under 6 years old or so should avoid the internal use of peppermint essential oil.
