8 Natural Remedies for Headaches

Willow bark
It is known as the natural alternative to aspirin, willow bark is actually what aspirin was originally made from. It contains the pain-relieving compound salicin, and is one of the most common natural remedies for headaches.

Lemon
Fresh lemon juice with tea is one of the best cures for headaches. The lemon peel is also very useful. Pound the lemon peel into a fine paste and apply it as a plaster on the forehead.

Ginger Tea
Make tea by crushing ginger root and add it to boiling water. This home-made tea reduces inflammation in about the same amount of time as it would take an aspirin to work. It has been used for centuries in Asia to treat a number of ailments.

Feverfew
One of the oldest herbal remedies for migraines, this plant can be used in many forms, included steeped in tea or even eaten raw, it contains a powerful chemical called parthenolide, which has been linked to warding off migraines.

Cloves
Cloves can be used to ease a throbbing headache due to its cooling and pain-relieving properties. Crush a few cloves gently and put them in a sachet or a clean handkerchief. Inhale the smell of the crushed cloves whenever you have a headache until you get some relief from the pain.

Lavender Oil
Lavender oil is a great remedy for alleviating headaches. Simply smelling the soothing scent of lavender essential oil helps, so you can just put a few drops on a tissue and inhale it. You can also add 2 drops of lavender oil to two cups of boiling water and inhale the steam.

Caffeine
Caffeine is a double-edged sword,” says Mauskop. If you’re too dependent on multiple cups of coffee a day (or even frequent doses of certain headache medications formulated with caffeine) you’re likely to experience rebound headaches when the jolt starts to wane. However, in small doses, a little bit can help reduce pain.

Magnesium
When taken daily, magnesium may help reduce the frequency of migraines. The mineral helps to calm nerves, which tend to get overexcited during a migraine. Some studies have found that migraine sufferers tend to be deficient in magnesium.
