Home remedies

Hi,
Thanks for writing back.
Sorry for the delay in my response.
There are certain home remedies to fight migraine but not as effective as medications.
Eating few almonds a day can keep the attacks at low frequency.
Lavender oil can be either inhaled or applied topically. Two to four drops for every two to three cups of boiling water are recommended when inhaling lavender-oil vapors as a headache treatment.
The oil derived from XXXXXXX plants can also be a useful home remedy against headaches.
Flaxseed can help provide headache relief because it’s rich in omega-3s. Flaxseed can be used as a home remedy in several forms, including as an oil and ground or whole seeds.
