What's the best solution for a migraine besides medicine??
Answers: Lay in a dark room with a cool damp cloth over your face. take deep breaths and lightly massage area of pain (temples eyes, sinus's)
Try taking a shower in very warm water. When you get out, drink some chamomile tea (this is especially helpful if you get nauseau with your migraines.) and lay down in a cool, dark room.
To prevent them, try daily feverfew extract. You can find it in many health stores and even some grocery stores' natural food section. There are instructions on the bottle on how to take it safely.
Peppermint oil is wonderful for head aches. Apply a few drops to your finger an rub it into your temples. You can also put a little under your nose so you smell it.
Works WONDERS on head aches!
Feverfew EXTRACT or tea, taken once daily should prevent them. Takes about 2-3 weeks to start having effect.
Also find out by process of elimination what is triggering them. Some usual culprits are cheese, red wine (possibly the sulfites), coffee, certain chocolates, msg, overripe fruit, lunchmeat (sulfites again).
There are some homeopathic remedies made by Boerik & Toeffel and Boiron and Hyland's that have a good reputation.
A cool dark room. No noise. And a cool wet wash cloth on your forhead and face. This will hopefully allow you to go to sleep.

LSD my brutha from anotha mutha
Wet a face towel, fold it neatly and stick it in a ziplock baggie. Freeze it. (I always have a couple in my freezer.) Then if you have a sinus attack or migrane, put it on your face.
putting your hands and or feet in hot water.
Try craniosacral therapy, I've gotten migraines since the 3rd grade, I had a craniosacral session while I was in massage school (had to write a paper on an alternative therapy) Afterward, it was 6 months before I had another migraine. I didn't even get the migraine is coming... feeling during those 6 months.
Find a certified craniosacral therapist, one who has been practicing for a while. Check the yellow pages, or call a local massage school for a referral. It may or may not work for you, I can't promise it will work, but it's worth a shot. Cost will vary depending on your location, going rates, etc. I paid $60 for an hour session and it was well worth it.
